## What's here

- **Guided video courses** that mirror the Samio for Schools dashboard
  one-to-one — setting up classes, students, grades and the school year;
  creating and publishing challenges; planning topics and generating lessons and
  teaching materials; reading analytics; configuring SSO and Google Classroom;
  managing your subscription, privacy and devices. Courses are organised into
  three role tracks: Owner, School Admin and Teacher. (Dashboard courses require
  signing in with a Samio for Schools account; the Samio-app guides below are
  open to everyone.)
- **Official certification** — pass a short exam to earn a signed, verifiable
  certificate you can share (PDF, Open Badge 3.0, and an "Add to LinkedIn" link).
  The certification catalogue is open to everyone.

## About Samio for Schools

Samio for Schools lets schools run adaptive practice for their students through
the Samio app. Teachers create "challenges" (sets of exercises across modules
like maths, reading, grammar, clock, science and physics) that students complete
on classroom devices; teachers track completion and results, plan topics across
the term, and generate lessons and teaching materials. Learn more at
[samiolearning.com](https://samiolearning.com).
