Pre-Training Setup

• Prior to the initial training the BOCES database will be populated with a list of current year students.  The process of acquiring students for the database will follow one or more of the following formats, based on local BOCES needs:

• Data Import: Student data can be imported from BOCES’ legacy system using a specified file format set forth by the Centris Group.

• Manual Student Entry: Students can be entered into BOCES Direct manually, one at a time.

• Sharing Students: Students can be shared with BOCES from component districts that already use IEP Direct. More information on sharing students can be found in the BOCES Direct Billing Section.

• Combination of Methods: Students can be acquired through a combination of the above methods.
