My Profile

This section refers to some of the options related to the current user. You can access these options by clicking on the user's name (shown below). A drop-down menu will appear with a set of options (depending on your roles) such as Account, Preferences, Pending Surveys, and Logout.


Account

By clicking on the Account tab, a My Account pop-up tab will appear. Users can now update their contact information, security settings, profile data, and enrollment information.


General Tab

You may notice some fields are disabled from editing (grayed-out) as they cannot be changed (except by another System Administrator in Accudemia). These are primarily all of the required fields that are in Accudemia (First Name, Last Name). You should be allowed to update the following:

  • Birthdate - Use this field to enter the date of birth (this field is optional).
  • Gender - Use this field to enter the gender (this field is optional).
  • Connect Link - This field only shows if enabled in Control Panel→ Virtual Sessions → Enable 'Connect Link' field for users (this field is optional).
  • Emails - Use this field to enter an email (this field by default is optional, but it can be set as required by the Administrator).
  • Phone Numbers - Use this field to enter phone numbers (this field by default is optional, but it can be set as required by the Administrator)
  • Addresses - Use this field to enter addresses (this field by default is optional, but it can be set as required by the Administrator)


For Administrators, there are some information fields that cannot be changed by themselves when they log in to their account. Someone else with the same role must go and do the changes to their accounts. Also, the main administrative account that was created has additional update restrictions, please contact support@accudemia.com if you need to make changes to that main account.


Security Tab

Usually, the information related to security is grayed out as it cannot be edited except by another System Administrator in Accudemia. These are primarily all of the required fields in Accudemia (User ID, Secondary-ID, Permissions). You should be allowed to update the following:

  • Password - Set a password (depending on the configuration set by the Administrator, you might have to use a strong password, which can be a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols of a specific minimum length)
  • Scope - Use this option to restrict/scope the user to a specific center/location (this field is optional).



Profile Tab

In the Profile tab, users will see/answer several questions configured by the Administrator:

  • Gender
  • Academic Assistance Program
  • Recommendation
  • Sports
These profile questions are just examples. Any profile-related questions depend on the configuration set by your administrators and they could vary



Enrollment Tab

In the Enrollment tab (only visible to those users with Student role), students will be able to select the Term, and the Subject Area to add classes to their enrollment.

Tutor Assignments Tab

In the Assignments tab (only visible to those users with Tutor role) tutors will be able to see/update the Term information and the Subject Area that they can tutor.

Purpose: Create a link that lets them directly schedule an appointment with you.

To create an appointment link, you must:

  1. First, click on your name and select Account.

  3. After the popup screen appears, select the short name you want to use for your link and click on  Save Link  to start using it.
  4. Copy your link under Copy & Share and share it.

If you are an Administrator, you can also create links for your staff members. Just go to Administration > User Accounts, search the staff member you want to make the link for, and click on the Appt Link toolbar button after selecting it.
