For districts/schools setup with either Clever or Classlink, there are a few methods to give access to para professionals, long-term substitutes, and other staff supporting students.
Option 1: Continue with Clever or Classlink
- Method: Your IT staff ensures that these staff have accounts in Clever or Classlink and that these accounts are shared with us. The Portal will sync these staff accounts and the admin will assign them licenses the same way as with teachers.
- Pros: Same method/workflow as all other users. Staff get SSO via Clever or Classlink.
- Cons: Sometimes these staff are not associated with a class; please let us know if this is the case.
Option 2: Manual Rostering
- Method: District admins share a list of usernames of these extra staff and Lab-Aids manually rosters them under your district/school account.
- Pros: Guaranteed to work.
- Cons: No SSO via Clever or Classlink. Some manual work for the district and Lab-Aids, since accounts are not synced automatically.
Option 3: Access Code
- Method: Lab-Aids issues an access code that can be redeemed by all the extra staff (self registration).
- Pros: Guaranteed to work.
- Cons: No SSO via Clever or Classlink. Some manual work for the district and Lab-Aids, since accounts are not synced automatically.
