One, secure login

With Clever’s single sign-on for schools, it’s simple and secure for students, teachers, and staff to get to the educational apps they use most often, no matter the device.

Effortless access for everyone

Clever’s commitment to accessibility means that everyone, regardless of their device or ability, can have easy access to their learning resources. With SSO, that’s possible.
Fast and secure access
By offering a centralized platform for educational resources, Clever makes it easier for students to stay organized and focused on their learning. With the flash of a Clever Badge or one password, students can quickly immerse themselves in digital learning.
Simplify classroom management
From easy troubleshooting to curated collections of online resources, Clever’s suite of class tools saves teachers time, reduces administrative hurdles, and empowers educators to deliver individualized learning experiences.
Use your school’s favorite apps
The extensive network of pre-integrated applications available through Clever single sign-on makes locating and using resources effortless and fun.
The same great experience for staff
Staff see their own personalized portals and log in to all business, HR, and other school and district resources with a single sign-on.

When we first adopted Clever, our goals were more narrow. Eventually, you can embrace that you can do more with Clever for your organization. Clever has become our gateway into learning.

Hello, World!

One year ago, if you had visited STRIVE Prep, you would have found me in my first-floor office, seething. My eyes were glued to my computer screen, and 1-800 number support muzak was ringing in my ears. I was on hold, waiting to learn why one of my student’s records was not updated correctly in our online assessment software. Seemingly small errors like this one frustrated my teachers – an out-of-date record meant a student couldn’t log in, couldn’t be assessed, and couldn’t learn that day.

FAQ

What does SSO mean in the context of schools?

SSO stands for “Single Sign-On.” In the context of schools, this means that teachers, students and administrative staff can access multiple learning or district/school applications with one set of login credentials.

What is an example of an SSO?

When a student logs into Clever using their own set of school-issued credentials, they gain access to all the applications and resources they need without having to log in to each one individually.
