My first UPSKiLD Session was quite possibly one of the most useful PD opportunities I've ever had. To have direct face-to-face access to Alison and her in-depth knowledge of not just Music Monitor, but also the day-to-day peculiarities of music department administration, was invaluable to me. I have used Music Monitor since 2018, but with the busyness of a very large school and music department, sometimes there's not enough time in the day to perfect or improve my working knowledge of the Music Monitor system. I could not be more pleased that I invested the time in stepping away from the office and into Alison's UPSKiLD Session, as I've come away with some wonderful improvements to implement. Armed with these improvements, I'm excited to know that I'm going to be saving time to manage some somewhat specific and repeated tasks to do with importing and exporting data. I love that Alison always takes the time to personalise the experience so that I get the most out of our time together. Congratulations to the Music Monitor team, I found the UPSKiLD Session to be a terrific initiative!

I had a very enjoyable and informative day at the Essential Elements Workshop. The small group meant that Alison could tailor the content for the attendees, and her enthusiasm and knowledge are inspiring. I came away with the answers to many questions and learnt quite a few hints and tips which will save me so much time in my day to day work. It’s lovely to connect with music administrators from other schools, and it’s always interesting to listen to how Music Monitor is used in various situations in different settings.

A huge thank you for the PD's last week. I completed all the billings today and sent it to accounts about 4 days ahead of deadline. It was a smooth process due to the knowledge you imparted last week and the time you spent. I was able to even pick up some odd things. eg. students who had instruments on loan but no longer took the tuition. I feel confident that a clean list of billings has been sent over.
