Basic Server Setup v2 to 5 | Essential Skills

To install Essential Skills software so that it runs from a server, with student data shared among all client workstations:

Install the software on your server from the CD/DVD:
1. Insert CD/DVD into your computer.
2. Locate and run the Setup/Install file on the CD-ROM/DVD.
3. Enter the license code found in your CD/DVD packaging.
Ensure the installation folder is a mapped or mounted volume on your student’s workstations
Copy a shortcut/alias to your student’s desktop from the server.

In this configuration, all the program media files are served from the single server. On some network, this may be too slow when many students are using the software at once. In that case, see the client / server setup instructions.

Note: The software will not function properly unless it has unrestricted permissions to its program and data folders. See the permissions guide for more information.

What Customers Are Saying About Our Products

Basically all the classes are using Essential Skills in the computer lab for a half hour to an hour a week. I use Mastering Numeration with my students for 40 minutes a week. Our teachers really like Reading Comprehension and Sight Words. We particularly like the Marks Manager and use it to print reports for parents. The students find the programs motivating. We would highly recommend your programs.

I am an early childhood intervention teacher and regularly use the programs from Essential Skills. I like the pacing, feedback and reinforcement. The children work independently at their own level and rate of learning. I highly recommend these programs to other teachers.
