Class Profile
A Class Profile typically represents a central record of instructional settings for groups of students.
It connects Locations, Students, Staff, and Schedules so the system can properly track service delivery and compliance with IEP requirements.
What’s the purpose of having a Class Profile?
Makes the class identifiable to staff without needing to interpret numeric course codes.
