How does this service work?

Triand's easySTUDENT is a web-native application. This means you do not need to purchase any special hardware or software to use and maintain your individualized student education plans solution. All you need is a working, web-connected computer, a web browser, and e-mail access.

Using the service requires a simple and logical two-step setup process: upload your data, and then authorize people to see your data. You can take a free online training seminar, offered twice weekly.
