How Gradient Works
All teachers, staff, and leaders will have access to Gradient through the same login options and land on the same home page. All staff will be able to access students, classes, assignments, and reports based on rostering & access groups managed by the Gradient System Admin(s). Some staff may need expanded access group membership to lead or manage use of the tools.
Gradient System Admin(s), designated during the Sales/Renewals process, receive an email with resources to complete a System Admin training to setup Gradient. The System Admin training will prepare Gradient Leaders to manage the Academic Year and Terms within Gradient as well as the rostering of staff, classes, and students. Gradient Leaders who complete the training will be ready to grant staff access to Gradient, verify that class schedules are accurate, and direct the next steps related to training.
