AlphaCard School ID Standard Software

Specially designed to meet the needs of schools, AlphaCard School ID Standard makes it easy to design, print, and manage ID cards for students, teachers, staff, volunteers, visitors, and contractors. Loaded with easy-to-use features, it's the perfect solution for public K-12 schools, private schools, charter schools, daycare centers, kid's camps, and more.

To help you start designing ID cards right out of the box, AlphaCard School ID comes with three pre-designed student ID card templates that can be fully customized.

If you prefer to design your own cards the step-by-step design wizard walks you through the process and makes it easy to add text, graphics and logos like your school mascot, and encode magnetic stripes and barcodes.

AlphaCard School ID will hold an unlimited number of card design templates so you can distinguish between students, staff, and other ID cards.

AlphaCard School ID allows you to easily create and store details for an unlimited number of people including students, staff, volunteers, contractors, and visitors. Choose which information you want to store and print – built-in options include student ID number, grade, homeroom, and even emergency contacts.

To streamline data entry you can create customized drop down lists and choose which information is required for each type of card. You can even import or manage data by connecting AlphaCard School ID to an existing Microsoft Excel file, Access, or Text Database.

AlphaCard School ID supports most digital cameras, as well as a selection of digital signature pads. If you already have student or staff photos stored on your schools network, can you easily connect them to AlphaCard School ID.
