Data Collection in Edulink One has two sections: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The Update Information<\/strong> section allows parents, employees and learners to see the information the school has about them. They can update their information if it is out-of-date, using the Update Information<\/strong> icon on their homepage. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The second section is Data Collections, <\/strong>which is for authorised employees only. Any changes to information submitted by parents, employees or learners need approval from Data Managers\u2014 they must review and authorise the changes before they can be written back to SIMS. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    It is recommended that you select at least one<\/strong> (you can have more) employee who acts as the Data Manager. Therefore, the responsibility for reviewing all information changes rests with the selected employee. The Data Manager must accept or reject the changes made in their Data Collection<\/strong> icon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please note that if your school uses Arbor as your MIS only ‘personal information’ and ‘contact information’ will be collected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Setting Up Data Collection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    To set up Data Collection, log in to the Edulink One app or website and locate the Administration Settings<\/a> in the cogwheel at the top of the homepage. Next, you need to click on Administration <\/strong>to access the Setup tabs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Subsequently, click on the Data Collection Tab<\/strong> to configure Data Collection. <\/p>\n\n\n

    \n

    Blocked contacts<\/strong>: If you have any parents who should NOT <\/strong>have access to information, such as student contact details including addresses, it is recommended that you block them in the Blocked contacts <\/strong>setting. This will remove their access to this section.
    \"\"
    Reasons to include a parent in this section (those not already subject to a court order), maybe separation or divorce. For instance, one child’s parent may have expressed that they do not want their address disclosed to the other parent. Any contact included in this setting will not have access to this section. Additionally, they will not have access to their child’s address or contact details in the Account Info <\/strong>section of Edulink One’s user interface. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
