Provus®EDU: A Drupal Distribution for Colleges and Universities

Provus®EDU, a Drupal distribution designed for higher education institutions, is simplifying website management for colleges and universities. Developed by Promet Source, the platform enables non-technical users to create and manage web content without heavy reliance on IT departments. It is currently in use at institutions like Calvin University and Rowan College in Burlington County, where it has streamlined content workflows and improved user experience.

At Rowan College, Provus®EDU allowed content editors to gain full control over their website, a significant change from their previous limited access. The college’s team can now independently manage content, create custom views, and handle updates without needing developer support. Similarly, Calvin University uses Provus®EDU for its program exploration system, guiding prospective students through areas of study while integrating detailed course and faculty information.

Key features of Provus®EDU include drag-and-drop content creation through Drupal's Layout Builder, filterable content views, and integration with third-party tools for campus management and student services. The platform is also customizable, allowing institutions to adapt the design to match their branding while benefiting from its out-of-the-box functionality.

The platform is designed to be scalable and future-proof, offering institutions the ability to implement new features over time. With pre-configured settings and a streamlined implementation process, Provus®EDU provides a practical solution for higher education websites looking to modernize without undergoing extensive custom development.
