Quick Setup:

1) Login to your school admin section at http://yourschool.eduvo.com/admin (Note: “yourschool” is the sub-domain that you chose on signup, refer to the signup confirmation email if you forgot your sub-domain).

2) On the General tab, you will be able to enter and review your school contact details. Scroll to the bottom to enter your school’s existing webmail URL address, which will give students one-click access to their webmail.

3) Select the Design tab and upload your school insignia (in either GIF or PNG format) and a front page image (in either JPG or PNG format). For the front page image, please note that the dimensions must be exactly 493 (W) x 290 (H) pixels.

4) Select the Users tab, download the “UserTemplate.CSV” file and enter the users (Students, Teachers, Administrators, Alumnus, or Parents) that you want to register with Microsoft Excel. When you’re complete make sure to save the file in CSV (Comma Separated Values) format, and then select the file from your computer using “Browse”, and click “Upload Users”. This will send a welcome email to all users with an auto-generated password. (Note: if you require migration, we can handle this step for you)

5) Select the Courses tab and click “Add semester” to get started. (Note: it’s ok if you are on a quarter, trimester, or annual system, you can adjust the name and timeframe of the period to suit your school’s schedule). - Enter your period name (e.g. Fall 2007, Quarter One 2007)

- Select the start and end dates

6) Select “Bulk Upload Courses”, download the “CoursesTemplate.CSV” file and enter the courses offered for that period in Microsoft Excel. When you’re complete make sure to save the file in CSV (Comma Separated Values) format, and then select the file from your computer using “Browse”, and click “Upload Courses”. (Note: if you require migration, we can handle this step for you)

7) Now that you’ve added courses, you can either register all the classes for a particular student, or allow teachers to add students to their respective classes. If you want to do it student-by-student, select the Users tab and click a student’s name to begin. Or you can instruct teachers to access the Members page of their courses and manually add all of their students using the “Add Students” feature.
