The DataDirector Training Web Site is Here!

Welcome to our new DataDirector Training Web Site!

We'll keep you posted on news and information concerning:
DataDirector, the software application San Diego Unified has acquired to provide district staff with user-friendly, online access to assessment data and reports, and

DataScanner, the companion workstation and software tool that allows your school to quickly and accurately scan exam answer sheets and immediately view and analyze the data.
Instructional staff at all schools already have access to DataDirector—it’s automatic. Some administrative staff at sites may need to work with their principals and Zangle Power Users to obtain site-wide access, if appropriate.

In the next few weeks we'll be letting all schools know about the phased roll-out for DataScanner, and we'll keep you posted on training sessions and new class offerings as they become available.

Want to Sign Up for Training?
Two types of training opportunities are currently available, one for DataDirector Power Users and one for DataScanner Power Users. Staff members in these positions have been designated by site principals, and typically, are two different people.

Check the Training Page for information on class dates and times, and to sign up for training.
