Branching Minds provides data interoperability to support schools' and districts’ achievement of high-fidelity MTSS/RTI. We make data implementation easy, and there is no limit to the amount of data ingested. Below is a list of source systems that we can accept data from. If your technology platform isn't listed, it may indicate that we haven't previously worked with that system or are expanding our support to include it.

    EASY OPTIONS FOR SENDING ASSESSMENT AND STUDENT DATA TO BRANCHING MINDS 

    All data containing student information must be sent via the Branching Minds Cloud site or a secure SFTP connection.

    Sending data through Branching Minds Cloud:

    Branching Minds uses an internal SFTP site called Branching Minds Cloud (cloud.branchingminds.com) to transfer student data and assessment data. The BRM Cloud site is hosted on our internal servers with the files residing within our secure SFTP. Each district will be provided a unique link that will allow them to upload their files to Branching Minds. 

    Sending data through SFTP:

    Branching Minds also supports the use of a secure SFTP connection to send student and assessment data. Districts wishing to automate the sending of their manual assessment files on a nightly basis can utilize this option. This SFTP is set up by Branching Minds, and the credentials are either sent via a BrM Cloud link or relayed over the phone, but cannot be sent via email.

    Sending historical assessment/student data to Branching Minds:

    Branching Minds can ingest historical assessment data as well as historical supporting documents. Districts wishing to send historical data can do so as long as the student numbers have remained consistent. It is recommended to send no more than 2-3 years of historical data.
