Were you unable to attend a user group this fall, or left wishing you’d been able to join more sessions? We’ve got exciting news for you: Skyward is hosting a virtual user group in December!

Just like our in-person events, this professional development conference will be chock-full of Skyward-led sessions that teach you how to use our software more effectively. Whether you’ve been using Skyward for 20 days or 20 years, there’ll be something for you to learn!

The conference will feature a lineup of over 200 informative sessions, covering both SMS 2.0 and Qmlativ. It will also feature non-software sessions on tech-related topics. Sessions will rotate between Student Suite, Business Suite, and other technology topics with breaks in between to make it easier for you to attend, even with a busy schedule. If you have to miss a session, we’ve got you covered! Sessions are available to be viewed at a later time with extended digital access.
