Why Every School Needs a Structured Course Catalog
A course catalog is the primary reference document students use when planning their academic journey. Without a clear, up-to-date catalog, students struggle to understand which courses are available, what prerequisites they need, how many credits each course carries, and which semester each is offered. Advisors, parents, and new students rely on the catalog to make informed decisions.
The Free Course Catalog Generator lets any school, department, or faculty produce a professional-grade catalog in minutes. Add your courses by category, fill in the code, name, credits, semester, prerequisites, and description, choose from three layout templates, and download a print-ready PDF or a CSV for upload into your student information system.
Three template styles for every use case
- Compact — a clean table listing code, name, credits, and semester. Ideal for summary handouts or notice board displays.
- Standard — adds a prerequisites column for student planning and advising sessions.
- Detailed — full description blocks per course, matching the format of official programme handbooks and accreditation documents.
UniCloud360 Course Registry pulls catalog data directly from your SIS, applies your branding, and publishes a live web catalog that updates in real time as courses are added, retired, or rescheduled — no manual exports required.

What Educators and Administrators Are Saying
Trusted by lecturers and students across Sri Lankan universities
"We used to spend two days reformatting the course catalog in Word at the start of every academic year. This tool cut that to about 45 minutes. The Detailed template matched our official handbook format almost exactly."
"The CSV export is what makes this genuinely useful beyond a one-off document. I export it, clean up a column or two, and upload directly to our SIS. It saved my admin assistant about three hours per semester."
"I shared the Standard template output at our accreditation preparedness meeting. The reviewers noted it was the clearest course listing format they had seen from a school our size. No designer involved — just this tool."
"My school counsellor used this to generate a subject selection guide for us. Having prerequisites listed next to each course meant I could plan my Year 11 and 12 subjects without booking an extra appointment."
