CareCardManaging Your Institution
What the Institution page shows an Institution Admin, and how to create programs and add terms.
The Institution page is where you manage your whole institution. It shows your institution at the top and all of its campuses below, and it's where you create programs and add terms.
What the Institution Page Shows
The page shows your institution's profile, then a Campuses list. As an Institution Admin you see every campus your institution has, not just one. Expand a campus row to see its programs, each program's coordinators, and an actions menu per program.
You can create programs and add terms on any campus here. Creating a new campus or a new institution is CareCard staff only.
Create a Program
On a campus row, open the actions menu (⋯) and select Create Program. Enter the Program Name, pick a Start Year and Start Term, then select Create Program. The program is created under that campus with its first term.
Each program then has its own actions menu (⋯) on its row. Edit updates the name and the optional code, description, and program length; Delete removes a program.
Deleting a program removes it for everyone who depends on it — assigned coordinators and students whose access runs through it. Make sure it's truly unused first.
Add Terms
A program needs at least one term before students, pre-approvals, or templates can attach to it. On the program's actions menu (⋯), select Add Terms. Pick a Year and Term (Fall, Winter, or Spring/Summer), select Add to add it, repeat for more, then select Add Terms to save.
Next
Once your programs and terms are in place, assign someone to run each one. See Adding Admins and Coordinators.
