BOLT School Management Software is a complete software solution for truck driving schools. Our company works with truck driving schools in USA and Canada, providing a complete web-based software that was developed by certified CDL instructors to run your entire school and student lifecycle from one location while staying in compliance with federal and state regulations. From our online student registration process to BOLT Entry-Level Driver Training, we streamline all your student, instructor, and financial management needs.
BOLT School Management Software started out as project for a local truck driving school in Tacoma, Washington. The first version of the software was developed considering all the features of the school's operating cycle. They started implementing the software in 2019, and throughout development process other modules and functions were added like class and testing schedules, student appointment scheduling, student database, file exports for audits, student file management, and many more features to automate the administrative work. Thus, we can say that BOLT is a software that has passed practical testing. The beta version of BOLT School Management Software facilitated the training process of approximately 1 thousand students.
The initial software proved itself well and satisfied the requirements for the specific school for which it was created. With the initial program being successfully completed, we started thinking about optimizing and scaling the software to make it available to other schools. With our initial program, we discovered several issues which needed to be optimized, this was developing a control system for the operational processes as there were some instructors who under-performed their duties, but the scoring system was not designed to control this as it had been simplified for easier use when interacting with students.
BOLT School Management Software underwent further developmental changes for make it faster, more complex, and more user friendly. We also added many useful features and integrated the software with the FMCSA TPR system to easily submit student graduation documents.
We have always understood that BOLT School Management Software was not a set of separate modules, but a complete product with the main purpose of simplifying and automating the operating processes of commercial truck driving schools. The decision to optimize the program brought the understanding that if we are going to make drastic changes, it was necessary to put all currently available modules in a single system, to ensure their adaptability, cross-platform use, and optimal communicability.
At the beginning of 2022, we gave BOLT School Management Software a completely new design, more user -friendly functionality, and added several features, such as payment processing to accept online student payments with a direct integration to our accounting system. In addition, we integrated the software with the FMCSA TPR system to easily submit student graduation documents, added a feature for uploading and storing student documents, as well as increased the functions of the skill test feature, and improved the analytics.
That's how BOLT School Management Software started, to where it is now.
