Import IBC
This program will import scanned pictures of (IBCs) Industry Based Certificates into the Document Archiving System (DAS) and also add it to the IBC 050 record table.
- In User Management, you will need Student Master RO and then RW to Import IBC. To change/save district defaults you will need admin rights at site 700.
- This cannot be used if your district does not have Doc Archive activated. In that case, use IBC Loader.
- Note that Industry Based Credentials are industry recognized credentials validating that a student successfully demonstrated skill competencies in a core set of content and performance standards in a specific set of work related tasks. The tasks and assessment must connect to workforce demands.

District - Default value is based on the user’s security settings. The user will be limited to their district only.
Format - Refer to this list for other set up values not listed in the standard set up list:
- Option 1 - This option requires the scanned IBC files be in the state file name format (SiteCode_StudentLocalID_BeginningSchoolYear_3DigitIBCCode.pdf, jpg, jpeg, bmp, gif, doc, docx).
- The import format recognizes if an IBC is 833 by the file name. It correctly marks the record as so.

- Option 3 - This option requires the scanned IBC files be in the state file name format [sasid]_[ibc code].

Choose Files - Select all of the files to import.
- FYI - In Windows, the known file type can be set to hidden, and as a result, the file will be .pdf.pdf" as a file extension and the count will show "0 files selected. To catch this condition, we show the file type error (as in document archive upload) to inform the user why no selected files are being counted to upload.
