Accudemia: How can I set preferred pronouns, student/tutor bios, and phonetic spellings in the system for my users? And where are they displayed?

Introduction

In this article, we will show you how to set the Name Badge for your users and where it can be seen throughout the system.

Step-by-Step

Step 1: Enable the Name Badge for a user:

Under the Administration > User Accounts on the main menu, you can view/edit the information related to the student or tutor such as their preferred pronouns, student/tutor bios, phonetic spellings, and even a recording of their name.

This information is shown to students when they need to select tutors while creating an Appointment so they can decide what tutor best fits their needs. The information here should explain the tutor's abilities, history in this role, as well as which specific Courses/Services he/she will be assisting others.

In the case of a student, it could be used to display information that they want to be known when working with a tutor.

Step 2: Make the Name Badge Public

If you want this to be visible from other screens make sure that you place a check on the Active (Public Card).

Step 3: Save the Name Badge

In the top-right of this edit user screen click the Save Changes button.

If using this for Students or Tutors these name badges or bios can show up in Accudemia in several ways. See below:

Students' Name Badge on the New Appointment screen
