Migrate from Skool

Skool has no public API and doesn't export its Classroom courses, so there is no automatic course import. What you can move is your member list: Skool's help center mentions an Export button in the Members tab of your community. Skool doesn't document which columns that file contains, so Acatudy doesn't assume any: in the preview you choose which column is the name and which is the email.

1. Export your members

1. Open the Members tab

   In your Skool community, as an admin, open the Members tab.

2. Click Export

   Download the file. Open it in a spreadsheet before importing and check that it has an email column: without an email, Acatudy can't create a student or invite them.

2. Import the members as students

1. Upload the file

   Go to Users → Import students (or Import → Students) and upload the CSV, or copy the columns from your spreadsheet and paste them.

2. Check the columns

   Acatudy recognizes common headers such as First Name, Last Name, Name and Email, and if it doesn't recognize the email header it picks the column that contains email addresses. Review each column in the preview and set any extra ones (answers to membership questions, join date, invited by…) to Don't import.

3. Review and import

   The preview shows who is new, who is already a student, invalid or repeated emails and your plan's limits. New students create their own password with a link; anyone who already has an account in another Acatudy academy receives an invitation and their account isn't changed. See Add and manage students.

3. Rebuild your Classroom courses

Create the subject and its units first (see Create subjects and content) and fill each unit with the Skool lesson open next to it. For quizzes, write the questions in a spreadsheet and bring them with Import questions (CSV).

4. Before telling your members

• Open the subject as a student and check the order of units and that every video plays.
• Tell your community where the new academy is, and send the invitations from the student importer.
• If you charged for access in Skool, set up payments in Acatudy before moving paying members.

What isn't imported

• Classroom courses, lessons and their videos: Skool doesn't export them.
• Community posts, comments, the calendar, levels, points and the leaderboard.
• Subscriptions and payments: each member's billing stays in Skool until they join your academy.
• Members without an email in the exported file.

Other platforms

If you also have courses in Moodle, Canvas, Thinkific, Teachable or LearnWorlds, they can be imported with their structure. See Migrate from other platforms.
