# Creating your organisation in mymeddiCAL

> Sign up, choose your plan, and get your school, sports club, or childcare set up from scratch.

## Overview

This guide walks you through setting up your organisation in mymeddiCAL — from signing up to having your students and guardians ready to go. mymeddiCAL stores and reminds; it does not give clinical advice. See [What mymeddiCAL is — and is not](/getting-started/what-mymeddical-is-not).

## Step 1 — Sign up on the web

1. Go to [app.mymeddical.com/signup](https://app.mymeddical.com/signup).
2. Choose **School**, **Sports Club**, or **Childcare** as your organisation type.
3. Select the subscription plan that matches the number of students or athletes in your organisation.
4. Complete payment — your account is provisioned automatically.

You will receive a **Super Admin** account. This is your primary administrator login — keep these credentials secure.

**Decide how staff will sign in** before you invite the rest of the team: email and password (default), or your school’s Microsoft Entra / Google Workspace account. Super Admin setup: [Staff sign-in and SSO](/admin/sso-settings). Parents always use an email code, not school SSO.

## Step 2 — Choose your setup path

Once logged in as Super Admin, you have two main tasks: getting your people into the system. You can do these in any order.

**Path A — Add staff first, then students**

Best if your nurses, coaches, or coordinators need to be involved in entering student data.

1. If staff will use Microsoft or Google, set that up first ([Staff sign-in and SSO](/admin/sso-settings)).
2. Invite your staff members (see [Inviting staff](/admin/inviting-staff)).
3. Once staff are set up, import or add your students.

**Path B — Import your student body first**

Best for bulk onboarding at the start of a term or season.

1. Import your students via the bulk upload tool (see [Importing students](/staff/importing-students)), or add them one at a time ([Adding a student](/staff/adding-a-student)).
2. Invite staff afterwards.

## Step 3 — Import or add your students

Each student record includes a linked guardian. When uploading students in bulk:

* Each student row in the import file should include their primary guardian's name and email.
* mymeddiCAL creates the guardian records automatically alongside each student.

For manual entry, add students one at a time and link guardians from the student profile.

## Step 4 — Invite guardians (optional)

Once your students and guardians are in the system, you can invite guardians to mymeddiCAL so they can:

* View their child's health plan
* Receive medication and incident notifications
* Create and manage health plans for their children

To invite a guardian, open **Guardians**, tick the rows, and click **Send Invites** (see [Inviting a guardian](/staff/inviting-a-guardian)). The guardian must already have an email on the student record.

<Note>
  Inviting guardians is optional. Some organisations prefer to manage health plans entirely through staff without enabling guardian app access.
