Modifying Custom Names

You can configure the MAP system to match the names used in your organization, including schools, grades, programs, and ethnic groups. The custom names you specify appear in MAP reports and throughout the interface.

Important! Custom names should be consistent with your student information system to avoid errors when importing data into the MAP system.
