Becoming a Strong Admin

This webinar provided a comprehensive overview of the role and responsibilities of an Apricot administrator, covering both the implementation phase and ongoing system maintenance. The presenter emphasized the importance of administrators becoming familiar with the software's functionality and terminology, recommending participation in the Bonterra Academy's foundational webinars. During implementation, administrators are tasked with collaborating closely with the implementation team to define the organization's data collection needs, design forms and reports, and prepare for the system rollout. Once live, the administrator's focus shifts to supporting end-users, managing records, and modifying the system as needed. Strategies highlighted included leveraging audit reports to monitor data entry habits, creating custom data integrity reports to identify gaps, and establishing clear protocols for user inquiries.

This webinar also covers the administrator's role in onboarding new staff, outlining a blended approach of providing access to the Bonterra Academy's training resources as well as conducting hands-on walkthroughs of the organization's unique Apricot configuration. Throughout the session, the presenter emphasized the availability of ongoing support and training opportunities to empower administrators in fulfilling their critical role in optimizing the organization's Apricot usage.
