uAchieve training courses

Take your encoding to the next level with these learning opportunities.

uAchieve Basic and Intermediate Encoding Workshops are our in-depth multi-day training programs that take place throughout the year at our training facility in Cincinnati, OH. We also offer our instructor-led workshops in a virtual format so that you can participate comfortably from your home or office. Pricing for either format is $1199 per person, with discounts available for groups of 3 or more.

Additionally, each summer there is an opportunity to participate in the basic-level encoding workshop onsite at the annual conference in San Diego, CA. Details including pricing will become available during the conference registration period.

Self-Paced uAchieve Basic and Transfer Articulation Trainings are month-long courses that provide the same content as our instructor-led training but formatted for participants to go at their own pace with staff support. Pricing is $699 per person, with discounts available for groups of 3 or more.

Want a customized program? The Individualized uAchieve Workshop is an available option to schedule at your convenience and is tailored to your school’s needs.

uAchieve mentorship

Get an encoding mentor with our half- and full-year programs.

The Encoding Mentorship Program was created to help staff at institutions understand the reasoning behind and learn to maintain inherited encoding. The program is not designed to replace training but to aid in understanding the existing encoding. Those participating in the mentorship program must have completed uAchieve Basic Encoding training.


CollegeSource will assign a dedicated Functional Implementation Specialist to work with your staff member remotely throughout the length of the program (6 or 12 months) in providing the following:

  • Monthly hour-long virtual meetings to discuss encoding, the types of issues/challenges you are currently facing, and to set priorities on what guidance may be needed for the rest of the month.
  • Up to 4 hours of additional assistance/working session(s) throughout the month, as requested.
  • Direct support through your dedicated Functional Implementation Specialist, eliminating the need to submit help tickets or rely solely on support documentation.

Below are some examples of the assistance CollegeSource can provide in the mentorship program:

  • Review existing encoding strategies and collaborate to provide guidance for optimizing your encoding based on best practices.
  • Help troubleshoot complex curriculum challenges and navigate unique institution’s policies.

Pricing is $6,500 per person for a 6-month mentorship, or $12,750 for 12 months.
