Support for customers creating classes in Christ In Us and SadlierConnect

SadlierConnect and Christ in Us deliver classes and content via separate portals but share a database of institutions and users. Administrators can manage their users in either portal, but creating classes must be completed separately in each platform.

Things to remember:

• The SadlierConnect and Christ In Us portals share a database. An institution can be set up and populated with users in either portal. The users’ information, such as usernames and login credentials, will appear in both portals.
• Once you have rostered users in either SadlierConnect or Christ in Us, they will be visible in the other portal when you log in.
• Class setup cannot be done in one portal and applied to the other. The classes and portal association requires you to manage the classes in the same portal you created them.
• Any active user can log in to either site using their institution’s custom website address and their username and password.
• For example, A student rostered only to a CIU class can log in to SadlierConnect, but they won’t have access to their CIU class resources. Suppose a student is in multiple classes, one in CIU and one in SadlierConnect. In that case, they will have to log in separately to each portal to access each class's resources, assignments, and messages.
• Rostering parents is done separately from student rostering.

Suggestions for the start of the school year:

For a new school year, you may need to remove previous data. See the article How do I roll over or start a new school year?

Institutions switching from WeBelieve to Christ in Us

• Log in to the Christ in Us portal and check your rosters.
• As a previous WeBelieve customer, many of your users may already appear in the CIU portal. Check your rosters in Christ in Us and add/remove students and instructors as needed. 
• Once your rosters are confirmed, create your classes in Christ in Us.

Institutions using a combination of Christ in Us and SadlierConnect products (Academic or Religion)

• Begin by adding students to your institution in either portal.
• See article How do I create a student import file?
• In each portal, create classes by using the bulk Import Classes option or adding classes manually. 
• Add students to classes using the Import Class Rosters function. 
• See article How do I create a class roster import file?

**Customers using both Christ in Us Grades K-6 and  We Live Our Faith Grades 7-8 must set up classes in both portals, as instructed above.
