Software Updates and Other News
Following our last newsletter and many requests from teachers, we have now made entry into the touch typing tournament, automatic. This means less work for teachers. Once a licence is purchased, learners are automatically entered into the tournament. A trophy emblem will appear in the top header bar of their course and all they have to do is 'click' on it to enter and take a test!
’Tis the season to be jolly, tra la la la la la la la la!
The theme of the season of goodwill and sharing has continued from last year to this, with Lauren and Emma sharing third place!
Only just ahead, Ananya takes second place, but in first place, is Sylvia!
Congratulations Sylvia on being our Christmas Champion!
Will she be able to hold onto her Santa hat CROWN, or will she be challenged?
Wishing all our students and teachers a wonderful Christmas and the best for 2025!

Software Updates and Other News
1. We have updated your admin panel for better data and statistical analysis. You can now view and export data, including problematic keys by student or group, allowing easier monitoring of learner progress.
2. We have successfully integrated with a number of partners but should you have any further recommendations, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
3. We maintain strict security across all our courses, platforms and admin panels. If you see anything untoward or out of the ordinary, please get in touch with us as soon as possible.
4. If you have any insights or student achievements you would like us to include in our future newsletters: sherleen@kaz-type.com
5. The new typing tournament has begun!
Administrators, please enrol your students by simply 'clicking' on the red button on your admin panel: |

Once entered, all pupils will see and then 'click' the 'trophy' symbol at the top of their course for a simple one-touch login to the tournament. All results will display in your admin panel and added to our worldwide tournament. However, you can also use the statistics for an in-school tournament. |
|
The tournament is entirely free to enter, and with Pearson introducing digital exams for English, there isn't a better time to get your pupils learning and honing their skills. It'll serve them well for FE, the workplace and for life. |
|
Several teachers/administrators have requested that we make this feature an automatic entry. We will be looking into this shortly - if there are any concerns, please get in touch: info@kaz-type.com |

KAZ for iPad We are also pleased to confirm that our iPad app is live and available in the Apple store, making it easier than ever to incorporate digital learning into your curriculum. However, ensure your learners use a docking station or keypad to learn. All results are updated in teachers' admin panels in real time. As the sole provider of software that seamlessly operates across all platforms, including Chromebooks, Laptops, Macs, PC, iPads and SCORM, we ensure a versatile learning experience. (Our download files are used in settings where the internet is unavailable or not allowed, such as in our faith schools or remote areas. Please email for further details.) |
