A drag-and-drop form builder per program, public open-enrollment listings, an admissions inbox, and one-click applicant-to-student conversion.
Admissions is where most trade schools leak the most money. Paper applications get lost, PDF forms email-bounce, and the time between "interested" and "enrolled" stretches into weeks. By the time the student is created in your LMS, you've already retyped their information twice.
The Applications add-on closes that gap. Build a custom application form for every program (and every workshop template, when the Workshops add-on is active) using a drag-and-drop visual builder. Drop the [tsm_applications] shortcode on any page and prospective students see a branded card for every program currently accepting applications. They submit a multi-step wizard with signature and consent capture; you review submissions in a clean admissions inbox; one click approves them, creates a student account, enrolls them in the program with default billing, and emails the welcome message.
When the Invoicing add-on is also active, the application-fee invoice button lights up automatically and the new enrollment automatically picks up the program's payment-plan template, financing fee, and contract. When Workshops is active, workshop instances appear in the listing alongside programs. The whole pipeline is one tool, not three.
One add-on, one yearly price — and every capability below.
Build a different application form for every program. Text, dropdowns, checkboxes, signature, consent, all without code.
Drop [tsm_applications] on any page; prospects see a branded card for every program (and workshop) accepting applications right now.
Review every submission in a single dashboard. Filter, search, mark reviewed, and add internal notes.
Approve a submission and TradeSchool creates the user, enrolls them in the program, applies default billing, and emails them, instantly.
Typed signatures with IP, user-agent, and timestamp recorded for ESIGN compliance from the moment they hit submit.
When the Invoicing add-on is active, charge an application fee right from the inbox. No fee, no enrollment.
Replace your "PDF application emailed back to admissions@" workflow with one branded page that just works.
Different programs need different questions, give each one its own form without paying for a separate form plugin.
When Workshops is active, workshop instances appear in the same listing, one application page handles everything you offer.
Charge the application fee through Invoicing; no fee, no enrollment seat, no chasing payment after the fact.
No. The admissions inbox and submission archive ship with this add-on. Reports & Transcripts is where export-style application reporting and roll-up reporting belong.
Yes, that's the whole point. Define a unique form per program; reuse common fields across programs to save time.
Yes. With the Workshops add-on active, workshop templates can have their own forms and workshop instances appear in the public listing.
TradeSchool creates the user, enrolls them in the program with the program's default billing, sends a welcome email, and archives the original submission for the audit log.
Basic operational workflow lives here. If you want formal submission reporting/export surfaces in the reporting center, pair it with Reports & Transcripts.
