  4. Import from TTRS ClassicContact our team for help importing existing data.

Adding Students by Shareable Link

  1. Visit the Students tab, select Add Student > Get Shareable Link.

  2. Choose to copy the link or email it using the icons on the right.

  3. Select Okay, quit to close the window.

Adding Students from a Spreadsheet

Visit this help article for a detailed explanation of how to import multiple students from an excel sheet.

Adding Students Manually (Admin Only)

  1. From the Students tab, select Add Student > Add Manually.

  2. Enter the student’s information.

    • You don't have to add an email for your student, but if you do, login details will be sent directly to them.

    • If you haven't entered an email, you'll need to make note of your student's username and password and provide them with this information.

    • You should avoid entering your email, or an email that is already linked to a TTRS account, as this will result in an error adding the student.

  3. Select Add students.

    • Repeat this process for each new student.

    • Choose Invite one more student to add another.

Adding Students Using a Teacher’s Account

By default, teachers can add students to their classes once they’ve accepted an admin’s invitation. However, admins can disable this option at any time by going to the Teachers tab, opening the Actions menu, and selecting Disable add new students.

Steps to Add Students from a Teacher Account

  1. Click on the Students tab.

  2. Select Classes and choose the class where you want to add new students.

  3. From the class profile, click Add student and choose from the available options.


**If a teacher is unable to add a student, the admin should review their permissions and select Enable add students from the Actions dropdown menu.


Adding Existing Student Accounts to Classes

Admins can also allow teachers to view unassigned student accounts and add them to classes. By default, this permission is turned off but you can turn it on for a teacher by selecting the Enable view all students option from the Teachers tab of your admin account.


**If the view all students permission is enabled but a teacher cannot see the existing student they're looking for, it may be because the student is already assigned to a different class. If this is the case, an admin will need to remove them from the other class first, before the teacher can add them.


What Happens Next

Once students are added, they will also appear in the complete student roster under the admin account.

How do my students log in?

  • If you entered an email for your student, their login details will have been automatically sent to them along with a login link. If they can't find the email in their inbox, have them check their junk or spam folders.

  • Alternatively, share your student's username and password with them directly and show them how to visit the correct login page for their region. Note, you may want to bookmark this page if they'll be using the same device each time they log in for typing
