Educating tomorrow's developers today, Visible helps students become more marketable with advanced, affordable, application development and training tools.

Visible Analyst has been used as a teaching tool for more than 15 years. During that time more than 3,000 educational institutions around the world have taught a generation of programmers and systems analysts with our automated tools. Since its inception, more than 500,000 students have used Visible Analyst.

Visible Analyst © Student Edition is bundled with more than a dozen textbooks and workbooks and distributed by many of the leading publishers including Course Technology, John Wiley & Sons, Prentice Hall and McGraw-Hill/Irwin. This "special" version of Visible Analyst will continue to be maintained and enhanced as a teaching tool with the unique goal of educating the future application development workforce.

Visible Analyst © Instructor Edition implements the Assignments feature from the University Edition in a single user stand-alone edition. Instructors register with the Visible Systems Cloud server, (a free service) and define their courses and student assignments. Using the updated Student Edition, students register for the course, perform the assignments in their copy of the Student Edition, and then submit the results. The instructor accesses the submitted results allowing them to review the models and repository entries, then grade and comments on the submitted work. Students can then review the grade and comments for the assignment and access any new assignments. All assignment actions are seamlessly integrated into these new Visible Analyst editions and implemented via the Internet with no additional software involved. The perfect solution for your students to submit their assignments remotely and for you to review and grade their assignments from anywhere!

If you already have the Visible Analyst University Edition then you only need to upgrade and download the release in order to offer the accreditation to your students. For additional information about the accreditation program and the opportunity it could represent to your institution, please contact us at edusales@visiblesystemscorp.com.

A few noteworthy features of the University Edition are:

Visible Systems Corporation has created a number of "How To..." training videos to assist users when learning and using the Visible Analyst. Each video explores a specific function or resolves a user issue, and helps you get started using and understanding the Visible Analyst. Additional videos will be added as necessary. If you have a suggestion for a "How To..." video, send us an e-mail at eLearning@visiblesystemscorp.com.

Visible Analyst University "Classroom" and "Campus" Editions include the Enterprise Framework Interface, Business Process Modeling and Strategic Planning Statement support. Licenses are sold as Floating Licenses which mean that each instance of a license may "float" around your network. Usage is not locked to a particular student. This edition has the advantage of allowing instructors to set up student project teams who can concurrently work on projects in an integrated fashion.

Visible Analyst is supported for the Windows 7, 8, 10 (except Windows RT), Vista, and XP operating systems, as well as Windows 2000, 2003, 2008 and 2012 server. Previous versions of the Visible Analyst may not be compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7, 8, 10. Contact our support department at support@visiblesystemscorp.com for additional information.
