Requirements to run Career Central
Before we get started, you must ensure that your school meets the following requirements:
• Your school has a fast, reliable internet connection.
• Students are able to access the internet in some manner (i.e. from their own
device, or from a school based computer).
• Students have access to Google Chrome (preferred), or Safari.
• Your school has some way for third parties to authenticate users.
• Your school is able to provide IT support to ensure that students and staff are able
to access the internet.
• You use KAMAR, MUSAC Edge Learning, PCSchool, and/or your school uses Google or Microsoft SSO for Authentication.

We are able to get this information directly from your school's MUSAC Edge s Edge Learning system, with only a couple of small steps required.

Key Part 2: Authentication
Students and Staff need to be able to login to Career Central using their existing school credentials. MUSAC Edge Edge Learning does not send any passwords through to Career Central, so students will need to be authenticated using Google or Microsoft SSO. We will need to know the ‘domain’
(i.e mc.school.nz) so that we can link it to the student authentication portal, allowing students who sign in with their studentid @ matchingdomain to be authenticated into the system.
If you have a different setup, where the username is not the student ID number, then
please contact us to discuss options about this.
If your school uses a domain forwarder, and students think their Google Account is
say 9072@wc.nz instead of 9072@schoolfullname.school.nz then this may cause
confusion when students go to login to Google. Please let us know if this is the case.
...
Step 1:
You will need to get the authorised person at your school (Principal or Principal's nominee) to send an email to Tony Strange (tonytony@edgelearning.strange@musacco.ionz) from MUSAC from Edge Learning requesting that Career Central have access to your school's MUSAC Edge s Edge Learning data.
Step 2:
Let us know when this email has been sent, and let us know what authentication your school uses (Google or Microsoft), and your job is done!
...
While we wait for confirmation of authentication from MUSAC from Edge Learning (Usually within a day of them receiving your email), we will customise your Career Central setup so that it is ready to go as soon as possible. Once we have access, we will set up the remainder of the link, wait 24 hours to ensure that we are receiving the data correctly, and then we will notify the Careers Advisor when they are good to go and begin the onboarding process.
...
PASSWORD SECURITY
Career Central recommends that you develop a strong password policy for your
school. This includes enforcing a minimum length and a password change policy.
NSN
Career Central will NEVER ask for these numbers, and will not have access to these through your School Management System.

staff user, if this is what they use at school.
