    The PUBs are some of my favorite times of the year!

    Very much looking forward to what is planned for Education Management, RE and FE. Hoping to get more information about the Common Record Engine…?

  • @Crystal Bruce

    Hi Crystal! Thanks for the info. I had a hard time getting the registration to work, but I had success on my phone.

  • @Crystal Bruce Thanks for all of the information. There is a lot of new features that will be very helpful: Transcript requests, Name pronunciations, Omnibar and the blue bar when you are impersonating some one.

  • @Crystal Bruce I'm really excited about the possibility of view only impersonation. It sounds like it's a ways off still, but I was not expecting that news at all so still good news.

  • @Crystal Bruce Just finished attending the Update Briefing, and it was wonderful to hear that there will be an attendance hub soon. I'm looking forward to using it!

  • @Crystal Bruce - I am thrilled BB is addressing the question of making grading setup easier and more flexible. Though the system works, there are far too many moving pieces that need to be accounted for with excellent planning before beginning the process so it all works seamlessly. Please pass along to @Michael Morissette I am happy to offer input.

  • @Crystal Bruce I am sorry I missed it! Sometimes things just come up. Will we be able to see a recording of it soon?

  • @Crystal Bruce Teachers will be happy to note that they can reuse their assessments!

  • @Crystal Bruce I like the movement on the Attendance - way overdue ? Great stuff coming in 4th quarter - can't wait

  • @Crystal Bruce So very excited about the possible updates to the Grading Setup! Long overdue!

  • @Crystal Bruce My admissions director will be excited by the faculty feedback capabilities for candidates, and I'm excited to see how the BrightArrow integration looks and works.

    @Crystal Bruce The parent profile updates coming over from Core are going to be an awesome time-saver!

  • @Crystal Bruce - I'm so happy that there is finally something being done about grading. Having gone from EE to OnSuite, the grading piece was disappointing and there was a lot of lost functionality. I'm grateful that BB listens to their customers and takes the Ideas that are submitted under consideration.

  • @Crystal Bruce A mobile friendly checklist/applicant interface is long overdue and will be very welcomed. The number of applicants we get who are applying on phones has gone way up over the past few years and a responsive experience will go a long way.

    I'm also very interested to see where the staff interview feedback discovery leads. We currently use a third party resource for this task but being able to incorporate it directly into EMS would be a game changer and a gigantic time-saver.

  • @Crystal Bruce I am so happy that they are addressing the many steps for grading setup. Also adding the previous term grades for the teacher to see is a key addition. Even though I do not handle the enrollment piece it is nice to see that is getting so much needed streamlining and updating.

  • @Crystal Bruce
    Personally I am excited by the blue bar for impersonating as so many times I forget I am doing this and try to do something I can't/shouldn't do. The grading improvements are long overdue and our teachers will be very happy!

  • @Crystal Bruce I finally got a chance to watch the K-12 product updates, and I know I've got plenty of people who will be VERY excited by the ability to view past grades while they're doing their grading! That's going to be a game changer for a lot of folks around here!

  • @Crystal Bruce Do you know when the EAP will be available for the Common Records Engine?
