What it does
Readers and subdeacons work through their courses online, and servants complete their exams through the department. CED Tracker brings it together so the clergy can see who's ready, who's close, and who needs encouragement, without digging through course pages or spreadsheets.
How many readers and subdeacons are ready for ordination, in progress or just starting, across the diocese or at one church. A gold badge marks everyone who has finished.
Every church, grouped by region, with progress for its readers, subdeacons and servants. Each church page lists its candidates by status.
Open any candidate to see their checklist: course modules, each exam and its score, the oral exam and the attestation, and the next step they need.
The whole diocese in one place. Record ordinations one at a time or for a whole group, and every ordination is kept with its date.
Each priest sees his own church: its readers, subdeacons and servants, with the same reports, and can keep the church's address up to date.
An Ordination List or a Church Report as a PDF, for a church, a region or the diocese, ready to print or share.
How it works
The tracker reads from the places the department already keeps its records, and refreshes every few minutes.
Servant stewards
A priest can invite someone he trusts, such as a servants' coordinator, to follow his church's servants. They see each servant's certification and exams, and nothing about readers or subdeacons.
In Settings → Servant stewards, the priest enters a name and email. The steward gets an email explaining how to sign in with a code.
Stewards see their church's servants: who's certified, who's in progress, who needs a retake, each exam, and a servants report to print or share.
The priest can remove a steward with one tap, and their access ends right away, even if they're signed in.
Signing in
CED Tracker is for His Grace, the priests of the diocese, and the servant stewards they invite. Only approved emails can sign in.
Tap Sign in with an email code and enter your diocese email (usually your @lacopts.org address), or the email your priest invited.
A 6-digit code arrives from Certification Tracker. If it's not there, check your junk folder.
You're in. Codes work for 10 minutes, and on iPhone they can fill in on their own.
