Virginia Wizard in Clever FAQ
Students can now use Clever Single-Sign-On (SSO) to access Virginia Wizard. This integration means that school staff no longer need to create student accounts in the Wizard or give students Wizard credentials to login. Students can simply use their NNPS Google account to access Clever and select the Virginia Wizard app icon to be linked directly to their profile in the Wizard.
Please see some Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) answers below regarding this change in student login:
Is any student activation required outside of Clever? How does the Clever SSO path change past student account creation/activation processes for staff?
No other student activation is needed. Once a student is enrolled in Synergy SIS, Clever will pick up the student’s information via nightly sync and the Wizard API will make a call to match it when the student logs in to the Wizard. All students with past accounts will simply use Clever to login to the Wizard to streamline account access.
How often does Virginia Wizard sync student data from Clever?
The Wizard syncs nightly (around 4 am) from Synergy SIS > Clever.
Does the Clever integration for Virginia Wizard include rostering?
Rostering of student classes is not currently supported by the Wizard. However, this should be available later in the year. Virginia Wizard staff estimate that rostering will be supported in Clever by end of June. In the meantime, Virginia Wizard will be taking steps to make ACP’s easier for counselors to generate and work with in the system.
Can teachers/staff get access via SSO in Clever?
The app only supports students at this time. For teacher or staff access, the non-SSO access method stays the same. Staff will need to continue logging into the Wizard through www.vawizard.org with their previously established username/password. Staff can track student progress through their Wizard Admin account, to use this information for data reporting at the end of the school year.
