School Photographers - Batch import in photo importer

For a school photographer to supply a CD-ROM that is compatible with the SIMS photo importer there is a number of important considerations:

They need to receive data from the school in advance of their visit and therefore have to be aware of the data protection implications.

• They have to evaluate both the methodology and technology for taking the pupil photographs on the day.
• They have to produce the images to a precise specification.
• They have to produce the CD Rom in the correct format.
• They have to be aware of the license and support implications of using the batch facility in photo importer.
• They know the correct procedures to ensure the schools are fully supported in this process.

The following companies have come to an agreement with us and are fully licensed to work with SIMS schools for supplying CDs and licenses compatable with batch import. They have all provided some SIMS school references sites to show that they are capable of carrying out the whole process to a school's needs.

Accredited School Photographers have also been checked and verified to ensure you get the very best out of SIMS. We have been very careful to evaluate the companies involved.
