Blackbaud University is committed to providing customers with classes that are relevant, valuable, and up-to-date. That’s why, in response to changing software and customer feedback, we’ve refreshed the onBoard curriculum! The following three classes now deliver enhanced how-to and best-practice instruction on the features and tools in onBoard.

K–12 onBoard: Admissions Process 1

This course provides the introductory information you need to begin using onBoard to manage a prospective family’s journey through the first half of the admissions process, with a focus on how to personalize that journey. Learn how to create inquiry and application forms, update candidate data, and assign login credentials to prospective family members so they can access your school’s password-protected community.

K–12 onBoard: Admissions Process 2

This course provides the introductory information you need to begin using onBoard to manage a prospective family’s journey through the second half of the admissions process, with a focus on how to personalize that journey. You’ll learn how to add and edit checklists, publish decisions, record financial aid awards, and create re/enrollment contract forms.

K–12 onBoard: Communication

This course provides the introductory information you need to begin using onBoard to communicate externally with prospective families and internally with other admissions staff members. Learn how to publish information in the password-protected community, compose Official Notes, and perform mail merges.

    Now if we can just find an easy way to communicate to groups of students and their guardians in individual classes rather than the entire class. As I understand it, Blackbaud is working on this. I hope it gets implemented soon!

    The Admissions Process 1 webinar is scheduled for October 9, which is Columbus Day holiday.  Many private schools are off that day.

    Hi Kent!


    My name is Jackie Christenesn and I'm the Product Manager for onCampus, Blackbaud's LMS. You have a great point. Today the email communication from Rosters is really individual/or whole class with nothing in between. We are working on taking bulk actions from our interactive lists. I'll relay back to the techincal team that we need to consider filters by group associations and also tie them back to the Roster so that Teachers can benefit from them not just admins. If you have additional thoughts on this there is also an existing idea in our Community Forum:

    You can find it by searching on K12CO-I-1399 


    Here's a screen grab of where to look: https://screencast.com/t/dgYFBddGGD 


    Thanks for your feedback!
