Acer for Education and their channel partners will be able to further support schools and educators across the EMEA region with an end-to-end solution designed to make learning more effective and engaging by helping teachers to save time and get better outcomes. Using Skooler’s tools such as Planning, Assignments, Assessments and Gradebook, teachers can improve their digital work flow, organise their materials online, define and share plans with other teachers, easily create assignments and have good assessment practice.

With Skooler’s Parent/Guardian Portal and mobile app parents can stay in touch with the school and keep track of how their children are doing. It enables teachers to build stronger relationships with families in support of better education for their children.

Skooler Learning Management Tools for Microsoft Office 365 completes Acer’s offer for the Windows ecosystem. Being hosted in Microsoft Azure, Skooler ensures a seamless experience as users don’t have to jump back and forth between different logins and applications, school management functions and lesson planning, teaching or parental communication.

We welcome Acer to the Skooler Partner family”.
