Launch Classroom Manager to your users with the Academy

You can drive Classroom Manager adoption and reduce your workload by encouraging users to complete Classroom Manager Training in the Academy. The Academy is Qoria’s product training platform. It provides certified courses and video tutorials for your end users on using Classroom Manager. After signing in to Classroom Manager for the first time, users can view and complete the Academy’s training at any time. They can also complete training more than once.

A coordinated email campaign is an effective way to launch Classroom Manager to your users. The Academy provides several customisable, ready-to-use email templates designed to introduce Classroom Manager to your users and teach them how to incorporate Classroom Manager's tools and features into their daily teaching practices. 

Before you begin

• Academy content is best for schools using Linewize Connect for Chrome or Linewize Companion Mode. Schools using Connect for macOS or Connect for Windows may find that training doesn't fully reflect their users’ experience.
• You must have a Linewize Filter account with the Owner/Global Administrator role.
• Add any new teachers to your Teacher Group.

Create your Academy Launch Plan

1. Choose your templates

The Academy has several different templates to choose from. You can use one, two, or all templates as part of your communication plan. You can preview the available templates in Linewize Filter > Product Training > Classroom Manager Training.

2. Choose when to send

Next, choose when and how often you want to send each email. If launching Classroom Manager at your school, it’s better to start early and send several emails to ensure all users have a chance to complete training before the school year begins. You may also want to promote training as part of professional development or as a back-to-school refresher. Remember, you can customise the templates to meet your specific needs!

3. Import and customise templates

You can download the Academy's customisable templates from Linewize Filter. 

1. Sign in to Linewize Filter.
2. Go to Product Training > Classroom Manager Training.
3. Copy or download the templates and customise them as needed.

4. Turn on Classroom Manager Training

You may need to turn on the Classroom Manager Training module in Linewize Filter > Product Training > Overview if this is your first time promoting Academy training to your users. Classroom Manager users won’t be able to access their Academy training until you turn on their training module.

5.  Start your campaign!

Schedule and send your emails.

6. Check completion and follow up

The Academy tracks which Classroom Manager users have completed each certified course and when they completed the course. An authorised contact person from your school or district can ask your Linewize Success or Account Manager for a list of users who have completed certified Classroom Manager training courses. You can use this list to identify users who may need additional support or encouragement to complete training or incorporate Classroom Manager into their daily teaching practices.
