Personalizing Dashboards

Viewing Standard Dashboards

The Dashboard is a highly configurable page that enables you and your team to visualize your institution's key metrics and goal progress with charts, graphs, and tables. Several standard dashboard templates are enabled by default. These charts are intended to provide a high-level overview of where your institutions efforts towards enrollment or retention goals currently stand, as well as trends in comparison to prior years.
