How to use Apple School Manager

Apple School Manager is a simple, web-based portal for IT administrators to deploy iOS, macOS, and tvOS devices all from one place. When used with your mobile device management (MDM) solution, you can configure device settings and buy and distribute apps and books.

Suppose you have already enrolled in the Device Enrollment Program (DEP). In that case, you may be able to upgrade your existing programs to Apple School Manager, bringing together everything needed to deploy iOS, macOS, and tvOS devices.

Eligible devices are available for assignment to your MDM solution through Apple School Manager. After you enroll them, you can assign and manage them using that MDM solution.
