Industry-leading MIS provider, iSAMS, is thrilled to announce the launch of two new features now available within iFinance, aimed at streamlining finance operations for Independent schools. Today, iFinance is trusted by over 300 schools and the development of the system continues to be enhanced to meet the needs of school bursars. New features include Automated Balances Brought Forwards and iFinance AP Inbox integrations.

iSAMS has announced the launch of the upgraded Ideas Portal for iSAMS schools. This new, clearer, and more comprehensive platform will enable staff who use iSAMS at their school to provide feedback on the system and communicate new ideas to the iSAMS product and development teams.

iSAMS announces the launch of its game-changing BI reporting solution, iSAMS Central. Harness the power of your school’s MIS data with data analytics driven by Microsoft Power BI and API technology for improved school performance.

iSAMS partners with Social Media Check to enable schools to easily and quickly perform automated checks on potential candidates, and helps schools to align with recent updates in KCSIE guidance, requesting that schools consider carrying out further due diligence relating to candidate social media accounts. Social Media Check scans private and public posts across major social media platforms using the latest machine learning technology and algorithms. Since the process is fully automated, it reduces the risk of unconscious bias in the search process for each candidate. 

iSAMS has announced the launch of a range of courses for the Admissions Manager module, now available on iUniversity. With 20 courses to choose from, iSAMS users will gain a deep understanding of how to harness the full potential of iSAMS to streamline and optimise their admissions processes. But that’s not all – iSAMS also introduces its first-ever iUniversity Admissions Certification exam, with 45 multiple-choice questions covering all areas of the admissions module. Impress colleagues and gain recognition for expertise in the iSAMS admissions software.

iUniversity has gone one step further to offer even more training for iSAMS users, adding over 70 training courses across 13 iSAMS’ modules with new courses being added each term. Schools now have the option to continue to access our free courses for teachers, or sign-up for a yearly all-inclusive subscription price. With over 4,000 active users on the platform, new staff are using the free courses to efficiently learn the basics of logging in and navigating iSAMS, while more experienced users find it invaluable to learn about new features.
