ARTICLE INTENDED FOR:

Faculty and Staff users of Starfish

INTRODUCTION:

All Starfish users should update contact information, regardless of how much or little they intend to use Starfish. Your contact information is visible to students who have a connection to you through a Starfish role.

Your basic profile information is imported nightly from WorkLion. This information can be supplemented with a photo, additional email addresses, and telephone numbers. Use this area to share basic biographical and contact details.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Log in to Starfish

2. Go to your Profile by

  1. Clicking the triple bar or "hamburger" icon in the upper left.
  2. Then click on Your Name.

 

3. Select the Institutional Profile tab.

4. Click Upload Photo to add a photo.

5. Check your contact information and add additional contact information, if desired.

     NOTE: If any of the information pre-populated in your institutional profile is incorrect, it needs to be corrected in Workday by contacting HR Shared Services at 814-865-1473 or by using the "Contact Us" form in WorkLion to submit a request. Changes made to pre-populated fields directly in your Starfish profile will be overwritten nightly.

6. Add information to the General Overview and My Biography sections. This information can help students know if, how, and why they should reach out to you.

7. Select the Appointment Preferences tab.

8. Under My Locations, add your office address.

9. If you would like someone else to be able to add student appointments to your calendar, add a Calendar Manager. You can select any other Starfish user.

10. Click Submit to save your information.
