Stars 2.0 Training
Training on the STARS 2.0 platform is offered once a month through the WSU Advisor Training Academy via MS Teams. Training covers both the Reporter and the Advisor role permissions.
Part 1 of each training will cover content for both the Advisor and Reporter role including the student profile, advanced search, watchlists and reports (9 to 10:30 a.m.). All users with Advisor or Reporter role should plan to attend part 1.
Part 2 of each training session concentrates on the Advisor role only and covers appointment availability, user settings, managing appointments, and appointment campaigns (10:30 - 11 a.m.). Only those with an Advisor role should attend part 2.
NOTE: Access to STARS 2.0 is only provisioned through a BAO via the access request process. BAOs and supervisors can review role descriptions on the Stars BAO page.
