The Education Organization Challenge

Your AMS Should Understand Education, Not Just Databases

Most membership platforms don't understand professional development credits, teacher certifications or grant-aligned budgeting. You're forced to cobble together multiple systems or compromise on critical education-specific features.

Disconnected PD Tracking

Professional development credits tracked in spreadsheets or separate systems

Complex Certification Management

Teacher certifications, endorsements, and renewals require manual tracking

Unpredictable Costs vs. Grant Cycles

Per-member pricing makes annual budgeting and grant alignment impossible

Common Questions

Education Organization FAQs

Yes. Our platform tracks professional development credits earned through your organization's workshops, conferences, webinars, and courses. Members can view their PD transcript showing credits earned from your programs, organized by credit type (CME, CLE, CPE, PDH, etc.).

Comprehensive PD tracking: We can import PD records from external sources into member profiles to consolidate all professional development data in one place. This includes initial migration when you switch to i4a, plus periodic updates as needed to add external PD credits members earn outside your organization. Import is performed by our team to ensure data integrity and is billed at our hourly support rate.

Important: We do not manage external certifications issued by licensing boards or automatically sync with other CE systems in real-time.

Yes. Our meeting registration forms handle multi-day conferences with multiple concurrent workshop sessions. Registration can be set up to include meal and session selection, giving you full visibility into who's attending which workshops. Export registrant data for your PD credit reporting.

No. We offer flat-rate pricing regardless of member count—whether you have 1,000 members or 50,000+ members, you pay the same annual price. Your software costs won't increase as you successfully grow your membership or add more school districts. This makes grant applications and multi-year budgeting simple since your platform costs remain flat-rate for grant cycles and board planning.

Most education organizations are live within 60-90 days from contract signing. Within one business day of signing up, you'll receive access to a development site and a detailed step-by-step onboarding checklist to work with.

Our team guides you through the initial setup including member data migration, payment gateway configuration, website design, and email template creation. You'll have a dedicated implementation specialist who works with you through each step of the process and ensures your team is comfortable before launch.

Unlike DIY platforms that leave you to figure it out alone, we provide hands-on support and guidance throughout the process.

Our platform uses enterprise-grade encryption (256-bit SSL), U.S.-based servers, automatic backups (database every 4 hours, documents daily), and PCI DSS Level 1 compliant payment processing. We understand the importance of protecting your data and have designed our security infrastructure with this in mind.

No. i4a tracks continuing education credits earned through your organization's educational programs (conferences, workshops, courses, webinars). It does not integrate with state licensing boards, manage teaching certifications issued by external agencies, or track credentials earned from other organizations. Members can export their PD transcript from your programs to include in their own license renewal applications with their state board.

Schedule a personalized 30-60 minute demo at a time that works for your schedule. We'll show you exactly how i4a handles PD tracking, conference management, and member communications for teacher associations and educational councils.
