Getting Started

Just like Emerge Desktop, the Mobile app has been designed specifically with ease of use in mind. Emerge receives data from your MIS and displays it in a usable way, allowing you to complete daily admin tasks in just a few simple steps, even if you are offline. Additional features include taking specialised registers in event of a fire, and calling for help during an emergency.

Attendance: take attendance for your groups, or another class at the school (e.g. if you are covering for another teacher).

Help Me: in the event of an urgent situation, this feature can be used by staff to call for help quickly.

Fire: using your MIS and Emerge attendance data, this feature allows you to quickly take your register visually when in a potentially chaotic situation.

Daily Summary: If you are an admin user with elevated permissions, you will see a daily summary by clicking on the Hamburger_icon.png Hamburger icon in the top left of your Dashboard.
