Invitation Codes are an optional feature that lets you generate a 4-digit Invitation Code that lasts for one hour to invite students into their Classwize classrooms. Students can use the code to permanently join a Local class.
If you need to add students to a Synced class, you can use Modify Students in Classwize to add them. Students added this way will remain in the class, even after syncing. For enrolment changes that must be permanent and reflected in your school systems, contact your school’s IT Support to add the student through the Student Information System (SIS).
Before you begin
- You must have access to Invitation Codes and Modify Students in Classwize.
Note
If you can't access this feature, contact your school's IT Support for permission.

To invite students to a new Local class:
- Go to the My Classes page, and select Add Class.
- Enter a Class name.
- Turn on Invitation Code. Classwize generates a 4-digit Invitation Code.
- Select Save.
- Share the code with your students so they can join the class.
