What is it? Jamf Educator is an online professional learning experience, similar to Apple Teacher, that lets you learn all about Jamf Teacher to help you get started on your own classroom.   How does it work?

Its simple to get started, just head to educator.jamf.com Is that everything? Yes to get you started, but with all good journeys, you choose your own destination, once you know how to use it, how you use it with your class and learners is up to you and because you know better than anyone that when you teach something, you want to know how it impacted on your learners, why not come back to the community and share your experience, your successes and also any questions you might have, i’m sure the community would love to help out.  ...
