1) Transitioning Years
Within the QuickStart Wizard, you can easily archive and adjust your IB year groups. This will allow you to archive your graduated students (i.e. the DP Class of 2011) and adjust the grade levels (i.e. to move your DP one cohorts to DP two from Grade 11 to Grade 12). All of your archived IB group records are retained on the system and accesible, but archiving will ensure a correct student count on your account.
You can also archive IB groups via the Overview tab by clicking Edit Group Settings.
2) Adding New Students
You can easily import new students via the Users tab by clicking Import Students.
To get started, you can download our Student List Template by right-clicking and pressing ‘Save As’. Once you fill in the templates using Excel or Numbers, you can bulk import your lists, which will create the accounts in 10-15 minutes.
One thing to keep in mind, the column formats must remain consistent. The required fields for students (highlighted in red) are shown below:
- First name
- Last name
- E-mail Address (if you don’t have student e-mails, we can create temporary accounts for you)
- Grade (Diploma would be 11 or 12 in the American system, and 12 or 13 in the UK system)
If you are unsure about the format or need help, you can always send us your lists to support@managebac.com and we will be happy to assist you.
