NAD Student Information Systems Data Upload Interface:
The following is an official statement from the NAD Office of Education. "In August 2009 all schools K-12 in North America, as voted by UDOEC, will be required to have all SIS information electronically deposited in the NAD database. Hunter Systems, Large School Minder and Small School Minder automatically accomplish this. Any school using another SIS system will be required through their vender to migrate their data in a Hunter approved format into the NAD database. This data-transfer will most likely incur financial consequences to the vendor or the school to map the data from a non-Hunter system to the proprietary Hunter database." [February 2008]
