    IMS Global Certification

    Obtaining the IMS Global certification is the most effective way to build trust among users. IMS Global certifies apps and technology providers after vetting them by making them go through a stringent process. This makes sure that the offerings are compliant with industry standards and can easily integrate with other compliant Edtech platforms.

    With the OneRoster 1.1 certification, MagicBox™ now offers a powerful tool for both K-12 and higher education institutions to securely record, store and share a wide range of data, including class rosters, assessment scores, learning materials, and more.

    What OneRoster 1.1 Offers
