RIO Recipe training and Partner Certification


We have successfully delivered RIO Recipe training to partners in Canada, the United States, Latin America, and Europe!

What is RIO Recipe? It is the result of years of collective experience, whereby we developed a method of implementing RIO Education for customers - from discovering their requirements right up to UAT and the final deployment to go-live.

Standardized and streamlined to easily follow; check out our RIO Recipe for success here.


We are also planning a Partner Certification process for our RIO Education SIS! Stay tuned for more developments.

How to model a multi-language Program Offering?


For example, a 
Program Offering  that comes in 2 different languages, with everything else being the same.


There are 2 ways to approach this:

  • use a language-specific Course Offering.
  • use a Single Course Offering and manage languages at the Session level.


For a more detailed description, head  here .

Delete



What is Program Offering?


Since a Course Offering relates Term and Course, does this mean a Program Offering relates Term and Program?


No, a Program Offering actually relates Program Application and Account objects. Think of it as a "label", which helps you identify students who enrolled in a Program.


Find out more on Program Offering here.
