The Staff Home page is where most users arrive when opening Bulldog Connect. It allows users to view key tools that enable them to take action on student success-related tasks. Depending on your role configuration within Bulldog Connect, there may be some parts of this feature that are not visible to you. If a user has more than one role the staff home will default. See the users' settings article to change the default home page.

Actions

The Actions panel is on the right side of Staff Home. The actions that appear as options depend on your role.

The default action is to Issue a Referral. Selecting this lets you issue an ad hoc student referral. Staff only see the Referral reasons they have permission to see. For more information about issuing referrals, read the Referrals article.

 

Another ability you may have is to Upload a Profile Picture. Selecting this link opens the Profile Picture dialog.

If you add a picture, the link on Staff or Faculty Home lets you remove the photo later. Photos must be at least 314 pixels wide and will be cropped to 314 x 314 pixels.

Automated photo imports do not override a photo you have uploaded yourself.

 

Quick Links provide access to different features within the platform, such as scheduling General Events, recording attendance, or tracking appointment campaigns. Clicking on a quick link opens different locations in Bulldog Connect.

Quick Links are specific to your role at your institution and may not exactly mirror those shown in the screenshot below. If you have more than one role, your Quick Links may be affected by the permissions for both roles.

 

 

 

Upcoming Appointments

The Upcoming Appointments panel lets you see the three appointments coming up the soonest and manage those appointments by selecting the title of an appointment from the list.

Selecting an appointment's title opens the Manage Appointment showing Appointment Details and letting you take various actions.
