Introducing Classroom Management Feature


Do you find difficulty in managing the classes such as IELTS, PTE, TOEFL, GRE, and SAT in your consultancy? Are you always finding yourself going back and forth in tracking the number of students and the assigned facilitator? As these classes are a major source of income in almost every consultancy, managing them with the proper tools is crucial. 

The new classroom feature in agentcis helps create different sessions, enroll students into them in accordance with the quota requirements, number of seats available, and number of courses per day, track student attendance, and manage the tutors for the sessions.

Users can alter the end dates, quota, and list of tutors for sessions. Sessions can also be archived if they aren't used right away and then unarchived if they are.

Note: Users will require permission to access the classroom management feature. These permissions include viewing the classroom, adding and editing sessions, adding and removing tutors, starting classroom sessions, completing, archiving, and unarchiving sessions, enrolling students, marking their attendance and viewing classroom activities.

Setting up Classroom Workflow, Partner, and Product

Step 1: To create the classroom application for the clients you first need to set up the workflow, partner, and product for the classroom. First, you will have to create a workflow to define the various stages of your service.

Step 2: To learn how to add the Workflow please click the following link: https://support.agentcis.com/service-workflow/

Step 3: For adding a new classroom product, you will first have to add a partner who will provide the classroom service. In this case, the partner could also be an internal department within your consultancy. For example, if BlueSky Agency has an English test preparation named BlueSky Test Preparation, we will have to create a partner called BlueSky Test Preparation. After the partner has been set up, you will have to add the different classes that you offer such as IELTS, PTE, etc as your product.
