Implementation & Support

Support for rollout, onboarding, and ongoing literacy team use

At Root Compass, we don't just provide data; we provide the clarity to use it. Our training modules are designed to bridge the gap between screening and instructional action.

Training that bridges screening and instructional action

Root Compass training is designed to help educators understand the problem, use the Pulse Screener, navigate the diagnostic library, and turn data into an instructional plan.

Launch planning

Clarify who will use the platform, what assessment routines already exist, and how rollout should be staged.

Team onboarding

Support teachers, specialists, and leaders with onboarding that reflects their role in the literacy workflow.

Ongoing support

Keep implementation moving with office hours, troubleshooting, and follow-up guidance as teams build routines.
