Basics Continued

• Make contact with the person in your district
  that does the course mapping. Tell them to
  beware that you will need their help.
• Make sure that you know who is going to do the
  entry of the application. If it is you, make
  sure that you get the approval from
  administration to be allowed to enter on the
  application. Approval must be given to KSDE
  before you can start.
• If you are going to do the entry information, get
  your password and id set up.
