Vocational & Trade School Management Software on Salesforce
Booking Ninjas provides vocational and career school management software built on Salesforce to help vocational and trade schools manage programs, student enrollment, schedules, instructors, facilities, payments, and daily operations in one system. This trade school management software is designed for skills-based education environments that require structure, accountability, and flexibility.
Challenges in Vocational & Trade School Operations
Vocational and trade schools operate differently from traditional academic institutions. Programs are often hands-on, schedule-intensive, and tied to certifications or job placement.
Program & Certification Management
Managing multiple programs, courses, and certification tracks.
Scheduling Complexity
Scheduling classes, workshops, and lab sessions.
Student Tracking
Tracking student enrollment, attendance, and progress.
Instructor & Facility Coordination
Coordinating instructors, trainers, and facilities.
Tuition & Payments
Managing tuition, fees, and payment records.
Operational Visibility
Limited visibility into program utilization and performance.
These challenges grow as schools expand offerings or locations.
