Class Grid

Classes are enrollment settings for a designated number of students and are taught by staff members. Agencies typically provide classes as part of a state ABE and/or state literacy database, and student instructional hours earned in a class are reportable to the NRS.  Independent literacy agencies may also report class instructional hours taught by a staff member or earned by a student as part of their state or literacy reporting.

When you first sign in to LACES NexGen, the default view at the Class area is the Class List view. 

The default filter is Active and displays:

•      Classes with the status of Active

To display all class records entered in your agency, click the X on the Active tile to remove the filter.  To add the filter back, click the searches link above the grid to open the search panel.  Open the General category and click ‘Active.’  Click searches again to close the search panel.

Shared class views display at the top left of the class grid.  There are three shared views.  The default view is Class List, which displays columns on the grid that provide at-a-glance information about the class dates and details.  The view may be changed by selecting a different view from the list.  This view will be in effect until you change it, even if you leave the class grid temporarily by clicking on a different tab, and then return to the class grid.   For more information about views, go to View Manager.
