Please note we have recently taken the decision to deliver two separate courses for new users of SIMS. The SIMS New User Basic course is aimed at any member of staff new to using SIMS and is ideal for newly appointed administrators and teachers. The SIMS New User Intermediate course is aimed at administrators with some working knowledge of SIMS and for those members of staff who have been using SIMS but would like to know how to use it more effectively to save time.
