PE Software Solutions by Institution Type
A college activity section and a high school PE department run the same core problem on different schedules. Pick the path that matches your institution and see how eFit automates the grading work behind it.
Three Paths, One Platform
In the past 12 months, eFit courses ran at Lone Star College, University of Houston-Downtown, College of the Mainland, Elizabeth City State University, Virtual Prince William, and New Day Charter School. Start with the page written for your setting, or with the one written for how your sections are delivered.
Colleges, Universities and Kinesiology Departments
Activity sections grow, and the grading load grows with the roster. eFit pulls activity minutes from student wearables, calculates weekly grades on its own, and hands you a CSV formatted for the gradebook you already run.
In the past 12 months, Lone Star College, the University of Houston-Downtown, College of the Mainland, and Elizabeth City State University ran eFit courses in kinesiology, health, and wellness.
Higher Education SolutionsHigh Schools and Middle Schools, Students 13 and Up
Secondary PE programs live on assessment records and participation evidence. eFit scores the pushup test, the 1-minute crunch test, and the 1-mile walk test against age and gender norms, calculates VO2MAX and BMI automatically, and keeps a pre and post comparison for every student.
Virtual Prince William and New Day Charter School ran high school PE courses on eFit in the past 12 months. eFit is for students 13 and older, and Schoology from PowerSchool is fully supported, so scores land in the gradebook your campuses already share.
Middle & High School SolutionsOnline, Asynchronous and Hybrid Sections
A remote section asks students to move on days you never see, so the activity requirement has to verify itself. eFit reads that movement from the tracker or phone a student already carries, scores it against the goals you set, and keeps a dated record for every week of the term.
This page covers delivery mode across both settings: college activity courses taught online, virtual and credit-recovery high school PE, and hybrid sections that split the week. Buying hardware stays optional, since a phone's built-in step counter is enough.
Online & Hybrid PE SolutionsWhat Each Segment Asks About First
How the same platform maps to two different sets of priorities.
Higher Education Priorities
- Grade export that matches their exact LMS instance
- Grading that holds up in sections of 100 students or more
- Class-wide analytics and cross-term comparison for department reporting
- Accessibility documentation for procurement review
- No license fee for the department, with student access at $59 per semester
Middle and High School Priorities
- Fitness assessment scoring using age and gender norms
- Pre and post results that show growth across the year
- Automated email reminders that keep students logging activity
- One export format that works the same on every campus
- FERPA compliant handling of student records
eFit is built to meet WCAG 2.2 AAA. Read the full accessibility statement before your review committee asks.
Budget planning looks similar in both settings. Faculty accounts are free and there is no license fee, so student access at $59 per semester is the only cost. Students can buy that access directly from eFit with a card, through a campus bookstore, or receive a seat from a bulk purchase. A department chair in higher education usually lists eFit with the course materials so students buy an access code at the campus bookstore, and purchases seats in bulk when the department covers the cost for students. A district administrator for middle and high schools usually purchases seats in bulk on a single purchase order, since school bookstores are uncommon. See pricing for all three purchase channels.
How eFit Fits Your Rollout
The same three steps whether you teach two sections or oversee twenty campuses.
Pilot One Section
Setting up your first course takes about 15 minutes, and onboarding support is free. Run a single section for one term and compare the grading hours against what you spend now.
Add the Rest of Your Sections
Copy the working setup to every section you teach. Class-wide analytics and cross-term comparison start producing the numbers your chair or curriculum director asks for.
Take It Department or District Wide
Bring in the rest of the faculty. Training webinars run every semester, and you can reach the team at sales@efit.software or 346-222-3348 to plan a wider launch.

The Features Behind Both Paths
Every institution uses the same four building blocks in a different mix.
Activity Tracking
Minutes sync from Fitbit, Apple Watch, Garmin, Samsung Galaxy Watch and phone apps through Google Health or Apple Health, then convert to a weekly grade with no manual entry.
Fitness Assessments
Pushup, crunch, 1-mile walk, VO2MAX, BMI and optional weight, scored on age and gender norms with pre and post charts.
LMS Integration
D2L Brightspace, Canvas, Blackboard Learn, Moodle, Schoology and SAP Litmos, exported in three clicks as a ready-to-import CSV.
PocketAI Journal
AI-assisted well-being journaling, so a reflection assignment can point at what the student actually logged that week.
