Records Transfer

Tool Search: Records Transfer

The Records Transfer tool is one part in the District to District records transfer process provided within Infinite Campus. This process provides a method to electronically share data between two districts with a common entity, such as state, region or governmental body. 

In order for the records of a student to be transferred, the state (or common entity) must have a record of the student.
