    MTSS Platform Data Implementation Made Easy | Branching Minds

       

      Edtech implementation is only as successful as the behind-the-scenes work to connect the systems, ingest the data, and roster the users. Often, buy-in and usage hinge on the successful data implementation process that has to occur before anyone can log in.

      "I've done this a lot with a lot of different platforms, but you guys are really top-notch. And I'm a band director, so I don't give compliments often so you know I mean it!"

      Matt Hawkes

      Tech Director, Cloverleaf Local Schools, OH

      Branching Minds understands this process is crucial because we have spent the last 10+ years working with districts' adoption of our MTSS platform. Teachers continuously adapt to challenges beyond their control; technology should not be one of them. That’s why we provide a dedicated Data Implementation Specialist to support you every step of the way, as part of your success package. This top-rated team is quick to provide resources and time to make your data implementation hassle-free.

      How Do We Make This Easy for You?

      1. You Have More Than a Platform, You Have a Partner

      Our team partners with the district team to facilitate this process within the district, whether that be rostering, assessments, or establishing data cut scores. Making all the systems connect and talk to each other can be intimidating, especially if your tech contacts are separate from your district IT team. Our team translates the technical terms so that anyone can understand them.

      🏅 Branching Minds is the best-in-class MTSS solution for educators. 

      2. You Get Resources for Every Step

      We have anticipated many of the needs of data ingestion, breaking down the process into manageable steps.  We provide a Data Sharing Guide as a one-stop-shop resource for districts implementing our platform. This guide walks districts through the phases of implementation and scaffolds what could be complicated technical tasks into easy-to-follow steps.

      Training sessions were well planned, well paced, and our questions were answered.

      3. You Have Direct Access to Our Team

      After a welcome call and a Technical Implementation Meeting, our team offers weekly scheduled meetings to check in and hit those implementation milestones. During those initial calls, our team answers questions and works with partners to connect systems for rostering or test log-ins. Each specialist is also willing to go the extra mile to help get our partners across the finish line.

      4. Your Needs Are Our Priority

      Each district and school has a different situation, SIS, data types, and single sign-on! We have seen it all and are prepared to address each situation individually. Our specialists value collaboration more than anything and are willing to loop in whoever is necessary to troubleshoot at a moment’s notice.  Our data team averages 100% customer satisfaction, and our customer support is on call to help within seconds (29 seconds on average!)

      Branching Minds made the process as easy as possible to have our district ready to start the school year. Their people talked us through many options and ideas to get us a usable platform to begin this school year.

      Data That Helps Students

      Our Data Implementation Specialists combine technological expertise with patience and empathy for our onboarding districts. Many of our specialists are former educators who understand the importance of having all the right data in place for educators to get a strong start with their new MTSS platform. The behind-the-scenes tech work has a direct impact on teachers' and students' lives…and that’s why we do what we do! 

      Branching Minds is a comprehensive platform designed by educators for educators to help identify, implement, and monitor evidence-based support for all students. For 10+  years, we have been focused purely on MTSS, not only supporting but also listening to our customers, making the complicated MTSS process much better and easier.
