IDEA PreMark Software

The PreMark Software can be used in conjunction with your campus' faculty/student information system to preprint identifying information on the Faculty Information Form using a laser printer (e.g., last name, course number, time/days class meets, enrollment). In addition, you can preprint course information on the student forms. This service can reduce the amount of effort required by faculty and students when completing forms.

This software is a free service for institutions using IDEA Student Ratings of Instruction. If you are interested in using IDEA PreMark, please contact The IDEA Center.
