Student Records Archive Compliance Solution
Many state Laws require that you keep two (2) copies of all student records.  The Student Records Document Management program (SRDM) from CCR makes this easy and provides additional benefits by organizing and maintaining your daily student-related activities.

SRDM lets you scan or import copies of all your student records, correspondence and relevant documents. Student information can be imported from your existing student information system as often as desired, or you can operate the Student Records Document Management system as a stand-alone solution.

SRDM manages and organizes all your student paperwork, including the archiving and preservation of important documents and student records.  Examples include: 

WinOcular lets you easily organize any paper document that you are required to keep by local, State, Federal or District policy.

NCLB, "Highly-Qualified" and HR's role
CCR, Inc. is developing a number of tools that will help you manage the huge task of identifying, organizing, managing and reporting on all the Personnel issues related to the No Child Left Behind act of 2001.

By 2005, you will be required to report to Federal and State agencies, as well as parents, the teaching qualifications status of each of your teachers.  (Are they Highly qualified in every subject they teach, how many credentials do your teachers have, status of new training activities, etc.)
