# Onboard a School

> How the Kralis onboarding flow works, what information is collected, and what to prepare before creating a new school account.

Kralis provides a guided onboarding flow for registering a school and creating
its first administrative access.

This flow is designed for a school operator, not for a technical installer.

## Capabilities

The onboarding flow supports:

* new school registration
* first-admin creation
* school identity setup
* rollout and plan selection

## What the onboarding flow collects

The app onboarding flow is organized around five steps:

1. school profile
2. admin access
3. contact details
4. location
5. plan and channel

## Information to prepare

Before starting, have these ready:

* official school name
* preferred school acronym
* primary admin PIN or password policy decision
* school email and phone
* school address, city, country, and state/region
* expected rollout size or plan

## Acronym and admin identity

The school acronym matters operationally because it becomes part of the school
identity and user credential patterns.

The onboarding flow also derives the first administrative identity from that
acronym, so choose it carefully and keep it short, readable, and stable.

## Practical guidance

* treat onboarding as the creation of a live school workspace
* keep the first admin access secure
* verify contact and location details before submission
* choose the intended rollout size honestly so the school starts on the right
  path

## After onboarding

The next recommended order is:

1. review school settings
2. create the academic year and terms
3. create classes, sections, and subjects
4. create staff and student accounts
5. begin module-specific work such as results, CBT, LMS, attendance, or fees
