Administrator Support

If you are a District Admin:

1.       Decide when to send out invites. Our password setup links expire after 48 hours, so it’s often most effective to send invites before a teacher inservice/professional development day. After 48 hours, teachers can still request a new password reset link at https://app.boardworkseducation.com
2.       Gather teacher email addresses. We’ve setup your district with the schools you gave us in your onboarding survey. The easiest way to send out invites is from a list of comma-separated emails, or CSV, organized by school
3.       Send teacher account creation emails using our bulk-invite tool. While logged-in to your district administrator account, navigate to the “Schools” tab, then select “Manage” and “View” next to the school where you’d like to invite teachers. Scroll down to “Users” and click to expand. Select “Add User” to start inviting your first users.
4.       Copy + paste your teachers’ comma-separated emails into the “Invite new users” field, OR upload a CSV file. Make sure emails are separated by a comma. If you have a CSV file with all your teacher emails, you can import this file directly. Use the template file as a guide. Simply go to “Import from CSV file” and select the folder icon. Select the file you would like to import and the “invite new users” form will automatically populate with the teacher emails. Note that each email can only have one account, so if you have already invited a teacher in one school, you won’t be able to invite them to join a second school without a different email address.
5.     That’s it! Once you select “Save,” teachers will receive an email from no-reply@boardworksed.com with instructions to create their password or login via one of our supported SSO protocols. Once logged in, they will have access to the Boardworks platform and can start sharing, presenting, saving and editing presentations.
