demographic information and provides the ability to review assessment results
or run queries with the click of your mouse. The Administrative Database
Management System features fast, flexible reporting with a streamlined,
intuitive design. You are able to access the most popular reports at the click
of the mouse or create advanced reports based on multiple user-selected
criteria such as type of assessment, career clusters, ethnicity, gender,
education level, and more. Additionally, the database will assist in the quick
retrieval of data for reports or grant writing. Finding individual students and
fostering communication with students and parents through e-mail and message
