Class Scheduling Software

Jeff Gaudet

Hi all,

So here is a little different that I hope this community might be able to help with. We currently have a campus in Spain, and I am looking for ideas, tips, or basic knowledge of creating a class schedule for them. All of their students are currently in our SIS/LMS database. All of their classes are in there as well. Everything is set up normally (classes, rosters, advisories….), however, here is where it gets tricky and I am needing some help.

I cannot create schedules for them since they are in a completely different time zone (BB can only create schedules based on the main campus timezone). Creating a completely new campus just isn't fiscally possible at this point. Many of the teachers are using Google Classroom ( that is a completely different conversation ?). Since their classes are not actually scheduled, they can't take attendance for their classes ( the main campus is set for attendance per class time). I am looking into any ideas that you may have for software, plugins, ANYTHING really, that might be able to create a “School Schedule” for these classes and allow them to take attendance. It can be a Google Classroom add-in too. One thing to note is that I have looked into Clever. Apparently, I am the School Admin for Clever, but have not had any luck working with support to get the account information. I keep trying to work with them and have not received any help at all.

Thank you all in advance.

Could you not schedule the courses for the appropriate time in your time zone (i.e., if your main campus is in PST, you could input a class time of 4:00AM PST for a 1PM CEST course)?
