Treaty 8 IT/IM is working on 5 core areas to support our Treaty 8 schools: PowerSchool, the Provincial Approach to Student Information (PASI), Dossier, Microsoft Volume Licensing, and General hardware support. It is important to note that all the band-operated schools affiliated with Treaty 8 First Nations of Alberta have implemented PowerSchool – a common student information system. The support services provided to the schools are:
