Autumn has arrived

... and unfortunately it seems that everyday life is still greatly affected by the corona situation. Lockdown looming, restrictions on concerts and performances, in general an everyday life with challenges. In this regard, we would like to draw attention to the possibility of video chat in Speedadmin within the Studyplanner learning platform, which may make online teaching life a little easier.

Feel free to contact us for further info at  support@speedadmin.com.

A new member of the family

On October 12, Kathrin Grube Andersson started as a freelance employee. Kathrin has a background as a professional musician, violin and viola, and most recently as an administrative employee at Helsingborg Music School.

Since Kathrin already knows SpeedAdmin and masters many languages, we look forward to a fantastic collaboration!

Upcoming webinars

On 6 November, a webinar will be held at 10, where we get into:

• Simple hour calculation
• School Login
• Dashboard

In addition, we hold our annual Christmas webinar on December 16, where it will, as always, be filled with Christmas atmosphere and Christmas fun.

Registration for webinars takes place as always via SpeedAdmin under the support tab.

Goodbye to our old mobile wep app

With the phasing out of the old web app, some users have missed the ability to easily keep attendance and create notes on the desktop.

• The checklist has been updated so that the list opens with the previous, current and next week in the view.
• Clicking on StudentID opens a new tab so you do not get out of the list itself.
• If you want to add a note to the student, a small note icon has been added to the checklist so that the student opens in a new tab and directly on the Note tab.
• Our new app has been updated so there are fewer clicks to create a note.

Instead of using notes, we recommend using the Learning Platform with built-in chat function.

REMEMBER to encourage teachers and students to download our Speedadmin App, which will continue to be developed and expanded in functionality. It works as a strong replacement for the old web app.

Music and culture schools in Nothern Europe 

SpeedAdmin regularly participates in cultural school conferences in different countries. In regards to the corona situation, these are this year largely canceled, unfortunately. The annual English conference Music Mark will therefore go digital this year. They have a really exciting program that might be relevant to you?

Music Mark – the UK Association for Music Education - will be running its Annual Conference virtually this year.  Play On – the Music in Music Education will focus on musical learning rather than about specific country curricula, strategy or policy.  Click here to view details and how to book and here for a pdf of the full programme.  The sessions will focus on ‘the music in music education’ – with discussions about composition, specific genres, pedagogy and technique.  It’s a conference with something for all music educators and leaders wherever they are based.  The delegate ticket provides access to the live event on the 20th November (with 4 panel discussions, 8 webinars and two keynote speeches) as well as to the pre-recorded content which will be available from the 16th November and all the live content as recordings after the 20th.  All recorded content will be captioned.  Everything will be housed on a microsite which will stay live for over 6 weeks so delegates will have access to about 25 sessions as often as they would like to!  And there is an exhibition from our Corporate Partners – including SpeedAdmin - for delegates to explore too.

Speedadmin has also just become a member of VdM, which is the music school association in Germany. Here we have the first conference to attend, we look forward to attending, and sharing good experiences about teaching and administration with you all.
