Rostering of Accounts
Rostering is the process that automatically creates and maintains user accounts. Your district’s Student Information System (SIS) sends staff and student data to Clever, which then syncs that data to Leader in Me Online. This keeps accounts provisioned and up to date without any manual effort.
Important: Automated rostering is set up for teacher and staff accounts only. Student accounts in Leader in Me Online are only available for schools that have purchased a high school membership subscription.
Using the Clever Portal
The Clever Portal is your district's dashboard of learning apps. When your district adds Leader in Me, a Leader in Me tile appears with your other district apps. Click the tile to open Leader in Me Online.
