Dashboard

This article provides an overview of the TES® Dashboard. 

The TES Dashboard provides users insight into the following within TES®: 

  1. The institution's distribution of equivalencies across the United States;
  2. New catalogs for schools to which the institution has equivalencies;
  3. The institution and individual user's account activity;
  4. The individual user's assigned evaluation tasks; and
  5. The institution's evaluation activity. 

All users can access the Dashboard, regardless of user rights. When specific user rights are required to view information, it is noted below. To access the Dashboard from within TES:

  1. Go to the Manage menu.
  2. Select Dashboard.

Where are equivalencies distributed?

This section of the Dashboard displays an infographic showing where the institution has equivalencies established (at institutions) across the United States. The larger the bubble, the more equivalencies were created at that institution/institutions within that region. When proactively building equivalencies, this information can help a college or university determine what geographical regions may need additional focus to attract more students.

Hover over the circle(s) to see the institution(s) to which course equivalencies were created and the number established at each.

  • Example: LAKE SUPERIOR COLLEGE: 225

Users with the CREATE EQ or ADMINISTRATOR user right can select MANAGE to be taken to the Equivalency Manager, where a listing of all established equivalencies resides. From here, equivalencies can be viewed, edited, or deleted.

Schools with which we have equivalencies

Within the Dashboard, users can see a listing of schools with which the institution has established equivalencies. By default, the three schools to which the largest number of equivalencies have been established will appear within the grid. To see a listing of all institutions, select FULL LIST.

Field Description
INSTITUTION Name of the school or institution
STATE State in which the school or institution resides
#EQ Number of equivalencies established between courses at the transfer and home institution; includes active, inactive, and any duplicate equivalencies.

New catalogs for schools to which we have equivalents.

Within this section, users can see a running list of up to 10 institutions with whom at least one equivalency has already been established that have recently had a new catalog added to TES®. It is important to note that the catalog added may not necessarily be the most current edition; this section reports those that are new to TES.

#EQ Number of equivalencies established between courses at the transfer and home institution; includes active, inactive, and any duplicate equivalencies.

Select the hyperlinked institution name to be taken to Course Finder 2. From here, the user can view the information contained within the data sets.

Catalogs are continually being added to TES®. Check back often, as the institution reported may change.

USER ACTIVITY

The USER ACTIVITY section of the Dashboard provides general information about the institution's use of TES®.

User Activity section of Dashboard, as described below.

Within this section, individuals can view:

  • The total number of users at an institution;
  • The number of users who were logged into TES at the time the Dashboard loaded;
  • The number of users who have logged into TES this week (12 AM PT Sunday through 11:59 PM PT Saturday);
  • The number of users who have not logged into TES within the last 30 days; and
  • The number of users who have not logged into TES within the past year (current date minus 365 days).

TES Administrators are able to access additional information about individual user activity through:

  1. The User Management page; and
  2. The Usage Statistics report.

If a TES Administrator would like to determine which users have not logged into TES within the last year, for example, the individual can go into Manage, select User Management, and view the last login date of each user at the institution.

MY TASKS

MY TASKS gives the individual user insight into the TES® Evaluation Tracker workflow usage at the institution.

My Tasks section of Dashboard, as described below.

Within this section, individuals can see:

  • How many open evaluation tasks are currently assigned to the user;
    • Individuals with the SERVICE EVAL user right can select the hyperlinked number under Evaluations To-Do to be taken right to the user's My Evaluations queue.
  • Institution-level statistics:
    • The total number of evaluations created at the institution;
    • The total number of open evaluations at the institution; and
    • The total number of closed evaluations at the institution.

ACCOUNT ACTIVITY

Each time a user performs an action in TES®- whether it be viewing a course, an institution profile, creating an evaluation task, etc.- a log of that activity is created. The ACCOUNT ACTIVITY graph depicts the number of actions taken by all TES users at the institutions in relation to the number of actions taken by the individual user over a 1-year period (the current date minus 365 days). In the example below, most of the activity that occurred in the CollegeSource University account within the last year was by the individual user currently viewing the Dashboard reports.
