Published: Apr 6, 2022

Whether you’ve been part of the Rock community for a few weeks or a few years, you’ve probably discovered that there is no shortage of things to learn within Rock RMS. From beginner administrators to seasoned developers, there is always something new to discover and conquer. We love learners here at Spark, so here are a few places you can find tools to help you deepen your Rock knowledge.

  1. Manuals
    These aren’t your ordinary training guides. We’ve carefully crafted user-friendly documentation with you in mind, designed to get to the heart of how Rock works and help you understand how the pieces of Rock fit together. With lots of screenshots and how-tos, the Rock manuals cover everything from universal searches to advanced reporting. Almost any question you have can be answered somewhere in a Rock manual, so this is the best first stop for boosting your Rock know how.

For visual learners, we’ve invested in Rock U, a library full of almost 200 training videos to help you get the most out of Rock. Start with the basics in the core concepts series or help figure out your event registration issue - all with a Rock U video.
