This post is another part of our mini‑guide to configuring DL PRO – a school management program for language schools that helps you organise administration, schedules, billing and online lessons in one place.
Below you will learn that:
- DL PRO is a comprehensive language school management program (for both in‑person and online courses) that you can precisely adapt to the way your school operates.
- we have prepared a playlist called “DL PRO – Additional Configuration Settings”, which shows step by step how to configure class register templates, the grading system and other advanced options.
- well‑configured additional options in DL PRO save time for reception staff and teachers, reduce the number of errors and improve the overall experience for your students.
- you can use our video playlist as a practical guide – watch it and adjust settings in your own DL PRO account at the same time.
You can already open the “DL PRO – Additional Configuration Settings” playlist on YouTube and use it while reading this post: DL PRO on YouTube
Why configuring DL PRO properly is crucial
DL PRO is a specialised school management program for language schools: from small, local schools to larger networks with multiple branches.
In a single system, you combine your student and company database, timetable, payment monitoring, electronic class register, documents and online lessons, including a virtual classroom and the DL PRO OFFICE mobile app.
Part 1: essential settings, Part 2: additional options
In the previous blog post, we described the most important configuration settings in DL PRO – the ones you need to set up first to start working with the system at all (school data, key group types, calendar, basic billing rules, etc.). That article is accompanied by the first video playlist on our channel, designed for language schools that use online support for Direct Language Lab coursebooks.
This article and the next playlist, “DL PRO – Additional Configuration Settings”, are a direct continuation of that material: they show how to fine‑tune the system so that it works exactly the way you need: from the class register and grading system through to additional views and rules for teachers’ work.
Which additional DL PRO settings we cover in the videos
In the “DL PRO – Additional Configuration Settings” playlist you will find short, focused videos recorded in the real DL PRO environment. Among others:
- How to configure class register templates in DL PRO – you will see how to define which fields in the register must be filled in (e.g. coursebook page, topic, homework, grade) so that teachers follow the same clear rules.
- How to configure the grading system in DL PRO – you will learn how to create a clear, consistent grading system (scale, descriptive grades, grade types) that will be visible in the register, in reports and to students using their online accounts.
A language school management program configured in this way becomes not only an administrative tool, but also real support for the teaching process and customer service.
DL PRO tailored to your language school
Every language school operates a bit differently: different payment models, different types of courses, different expectations from students and corporate clients, a different number of branches. DL PRO makes it possible to reflect all of this in the system – from the calendar and timetable, through the electronic class register, to documents, billing and access to online materials from Direct Language Lab and the virtual classroom.
So if you are looking for a practical way to configure the DL PRO language school management program step by step to match the needs of your school, make use of the “DL PRO Additional Configuration Settings” playlist: DL PRO on YouTube
