What can automated Substitute Management do for you?
Save your school district time and money
TCP Software’s substitute management tools are designed with a simple goal in mind: automate time-consuming processes to free up your administration. From faculty requiring leave approval to finding qualified individuals to notifying and scheduling an available substitute, the substitute management process is a significant challenge for school districts. By automating the process, your administrators can recover their time and refocus their resources on better supporting the school district and its students.
Optimize substitute positions
Often, teachers have a preference for which qualified substitutes are best suited to take over their class. With TCP’s Substitute Management tools, each teacher has the ability to designate preferred substitutes so that they receive the first opportunity to accept an assignment. This optimizes the chances for a qualified and preferred substitute to step in as needed, ensuring the class is in great hands.
Streamline Call Lists
One of the most significant challenges of manual substitute management is reaching out to each and every substitute while still trying to find local, preferred substitutes first. With TCP’s substitute notification tools, the TimeClock Plus system can sort substitutes by location, qualifications and teacher preferences and even establish a staggered notification process to give better candidates the first round of notifications. If they don’t accept the assignment within a certain time frame, the notification will open to a wider range of substitutes, all without your administrators having to lift a finger.
