Video Tutorials for Using the Safe Routes to School Data System

Thank you for the interest in evaluating your Safe Routes to School Program. This page offers a menu of video tutorials designed to provide an overview of the evaluation resources offered by the National Center for Safe Routes to School and to show how to use the online Data System for entering, analyzing and retrieving data and reports about your Safe Routes program. The video tutorials below appear in an order that generally follows how the Data System was designed to be used: from establishing a user log-in, creating a program account and adding schools to the program, to entering questionnaire data and creating summary reports of those data.
