Schools with an up-to-date support agreement are entitled to register for Accelerus Training Courses. However the support agreement itself, while entitling a school to free upgrades of the Accelerus software and telephone/email support, does not include training costs.
Accelerus trainers can run training courses for individual schools either on site, online or at the Semaphore Consulting office. This type of training is usually customised to a school's needs and may include working on a copy of the school's database to make the training experience more relevant, or even working to update the live database.

The How To guides provide step-by-step information on processes that are not part of the core functioning of Accelerus but may be utilised within Accelerus. For example, Microsoft Word allows the insertion of photos and the use of If fields in templates that may be handy when setting up your school's report templates.
Full details, including steps and examples, on all of the Accelerus windows and processes can be found in the Accelerus on-line help. Press F1 in any Accelerus window to bring up the help about that particular window and all of its functions.
The guides listed below are available to Accelerus administrators to assist them in their set up and ongoing use of Accelerus.
Many of these guides provide step by step instructions, particularly useful when moving from one academic cycle or year to the next. Other guides focus on particular processes or Accelerus users.
This page contains details of specific known issues and their solutions for Accelerus administrators.
In addition, the Changes in Accelerus Builds page should be visited to see if a more recent build to that which you are currently running has fixed the problem you have encountered and, if so, update your version of Accelerus to the latest version .
Otherwise, if an error is encountered in Accelerus that cannot be found on the Changes page, the following steps should be taken:

This page contains a range of sample files that may be useful for Accelerus administrators, providing ideas of what is possible in Accelerus; as a starting point or as the basis for your own files, eg when setting up analyses; and to provide information on more advanced processes such as the use of graphic functions.
Some instructions on basic customising of the samples to meet your school's needs can be found on the website.
However, Accelerus administrators are reminded that the formulation of calculations and analyses and the setting up of specific reports or templates are not covered by their school's Accelerus Licence Conditions. Further assistance and specific customisations are available on a fee for service basis.
