Overview
Impact tasks allow institutions to understand whether a student has completed an assigned responsibility, how long it took to complete and can be used for follow-up by an advisor/coach if the student has not completed their assigned tasks.
Impact Tasking permits any user to assign a task to any other user.
- Tasks have due dates and can link information from a Resource Guide.
- The goal of Impact Tasking is to allow the institution to track and change student behavior.
The analytics gathered from each task and their associations will be processed through our intelligence engine, Predict, to understand what students are doing and to drive recommendations based on the history of similarities.

Next, select a template based on what tasks can be created by the logged-in user role.
