YDS prep course software for target score groups and terms
YDS prep course software is the program a course uses to follow its terms, target score classes, adult learner records and fees while preparing students for ÖSYM's foreign language exam. The YDS has 80 multiple-choice questions and no speaking or writing section, while the e-YDS is the computer-based version offered more often through the year. Most learners are academics applying for a doctorate or associate professorship, or public employees seeking the language allowance, and Jamaster LMS lets you follow them in groups by target and language.
The single-branch Mini plan is $49 a month, and the Pro plan for multi-branch institutions is $89 per branch per month (billed yearly), and you can try it with a 10-day free demo account.
Common snags on a YDS course
Different targets in one classroom
Putting a research assistant who needs a pass mark in the same room as an associate professor candidate chasing a high score pleases neither. In Jamaster you set target score bands as levels, open a group for each and keep the starting level in the enrollment history.
Lessons lost to shifts and meetings
Doctors, lecturers and civil servants miss class when work piles up, and the gap keeps growing. QR attendance shows each learner's rate, and after 3 consecutive absences a meeting plan opens by itself.
A new term after results
When results come out, learners who fell short look straight at the next session, and re-enrollment can slip in that short window. A callback date set during the lead conversation tells an advisor exactly when to call.
What a YDS course uses in the software
Language and target score levels
Open English, German or Arabic YDS courses separately and set target score bands as levels in each.
Terms tied to sessions
Create separate terms for the paper YDS and the e-YDS and set each term's price and capacity yourself.
Corporate learner type
Mark staff sent as a batch by a hospital or university as corporate, and self-funded learners as individual.
Evening and Saturday groups
Evening groups that fit office hours and Saturday morning groups sit on the calendar with their own lesson patterns.
Enrollment spread
Enrollment by course shows which language's YDS preparation draws the most demand, which makes opening a new group an easy call.
From level chat to YDS result

Enrolling in a level group
The learner joins a group at the right level, with contract and payment plan attached.

Attendance follow-up
QR attendance runs every lesson, and an advisor talks to anyone whose attendance drops.

Learners who want to continue after results move into the next term's group.
Frequently asked questions
What is YDS prep course software?
YDS prep course software is the system language exam courses use to manage learner records, level groups, class participation and payments. Jamaster LMS is web-based and keeps several branches in one account.
Can YDS and e-YDS learners be tracked separately?
Yes, open a separate term and group for each. Term enrollment figures then tell you how many learners each session has.
How do you run a YDS group for an employer's staff?
Mark those learners with the corporate type and create a group and contract for that employer. Corporate and individual enrollments then stay apart in reports.
What is the monthly cost of YDS course software?
The single-branch Mini plan is $49 a month, and the Pro plan for multi-branch institutions is $89 per branch per month (billed yearly). SMS packages are outside that fee, and a 10-day demo account, free of charge, is enough to build your language levels.
