Getting to Know Your Student Dashboard
This activity will help you to see how easy it is to use your new student dashboard. It is important to us that you are empowered as a student to take ownership of your own information! Your dashboard is the one place where you can view or update your information, as well as communicate with your school. Practice the tasks in this activity to see all the tools and information available to you.
LOGGING IN TO YOUR STUDENT DASHBOARD
After you first shared your name and email address, your account was created. You were sent an email with your account information, as in the sample below. To access your account dashboard, click the button from the email you received to create your password
When you sign in, you will see your dashboard. If you forget your password or have trouble signing in, you can click the Forgot Password link below the Sign In button, or you can click the Need Help link and someone will get back with you to assist you.

TELLING YOUR STORY
Sharing with others about the success you have had in your life with adult education can inspire other adults like you to do the same! It can also raise the awareness of the great things adult education does, which can lead to increased funding and help to keep the programming free for future students. To share a few words about how adult education has helped you to achieve success, click the Tell My Story button. Answer the brief questions, then click Submit to save your answers. Click Back to return to your dashboard.
