We're happy to arrange remote support sessions, just arrange for the Academic. [Contact us](/support-and-training/contact-us.md) and we can schedule a support session. ## **Academic Providers (Managed Accounts)** Interested in integrating Better Building into your architecture or engineering curriculum? Our managed accounts are designed for academic providers to efficiently support students at scale, with enhanced tools for management, usage insights, and tailored technical support. With the Academic Providers plan, you can set up a course for Semester 1, invite students as guests to relevant projects, and give them access to everything they need to meet your teaching objectives. At the end of the semester, student access is automatically retracted and can be reassigned for Semester 2—keeping your course structure clean and efficient. Since every course is unique, we offer a customised approach to fit your needs. To learn more or arrange remote support, [contact us.](/support-and-training/contact-us.md)
