Open Webinars
For those in technical or non-technical roles, our open webinars help users gain an overall understanding of SchoolTool and how to utilize it to be more effective in their specific role. Open webinars are offered multiple times a month to ensure anyone interested will have an opportunity to attend a session at a day/time that works best for their schedule, and they’re available to all district, RIC, and BOCES staff using or supporting SchoolTool.
Subscription Webinars
If you’re looking to sharpen your SchoolTool skills, our subscription webinars can help take your knowledge to the next level! These webinars are specialized sessions that deep dive into technical SchoolTool functions and feature additional topics that don’t overlap with content provided within our open webinars.
Talk with a Trainer Bonus!
For those subscribing to additional content, SchoolTool Trainers are available to respond to questions to help customers take off running or resolve a minor issue or concern quickly, helping to avoid the need to submit a support ticket. Unique trainer tips and tricks are also shared monthly, giving end users beneficial takeaways for using SchoolTool they may not discover on their own!

Different sessions per day (perhaps one for teachers, another for discipline staff, etc.), or a multiple-day training program to cover more roles or deep-dive into specific modules.
Implementation Training
Are you making the move to SchoolTool from another system, or investing in student management software for the very first time? For those implementing SchoolTool, we work hand-in-hand with a district to migrate their student data into their SchoolTool database and deliver role-based hands-on training alongside each of the data migration phases. Our training is in the style of hands-on workshops (working on live data where possible) and is related to the roles impacted by the data most recently migrated.
From the basics like getting users set up and getting familiar with the ins and outs of the system, to entering people and family information, or perhaps walking staff through how to create classes and understand all the key modules that are necessary for them to know to get their job done, we’ve got you covered and work closely with stakeholders to build the ideal schedule (and list of topics) to set you up for success.
