Teachers are bombarded with new applications every day. Some love the challenge of learning new things, and some don’t. That’s why Edsby works hard to support all your educators as they learn Edsby, offering a variety of ways to help everyone get comfortable with the system in a way that works best for them.
To make things simple to begin with, Edsby was designed to work like the social media systems teachers already know and use. Who needed a lot of training to use Facebook?
There’s a tour built into the Edsby product. First time users are stepped through the basics of many areas of Edsby and can review anytime they like. With videos.
Prepackaged FAQs and dozens of training videos illustrate aspects of Edsby for teachers, admins, parents and students.
Edsby can perform onsite or remote training for large organizations, often led by former teachers. Extensive training materials, including workbooks, are provided.
A series of training courses are built right into Edsby. Educators can work through them as they have the time.
Edsby can create videos using an organization’s specific language and messaging to make the introduction of Edsby easier for local teachers, students and parents.
Organizations can create a group in their Edsby systems for internal Edsby Q&A.
Designated representatives in your team can connect with Edsby support personnel to obtain answers to your educators’ specific questions. Get real answers from real people.
