Initial Account Setup
Welcome to Edge Factor! Before your school or district starts using the platform, there are a few key decisions to make to ensure a smooth setup. Use this guide to help plan your onboarding.
Choose Your Primary Contact
You’ll need to decide who will serve as your main administrator. This person will:

We recommend selecting someone with strong familiarity with your educators, student structure, and digital learning initiatives.
