Faculty and Staff Guide to Watermark
Through a tool called Watermark Student Success and Engagement (previously known as Aviso), students are able to connect with their advisors, instructors, and other services such as Tutoring and Counseling.
Faculty & Staff can use Watermark to:
- Manage and engage your advising caseload, by sending messages and scheduling advising appointments (as well as sharing information about drop-in advising hours)
- Make appointments for students with other student support areas, like tutoring
- Send alerts to other student support areas on behalf of students for warm hand-offs
- Help students plan their courses so they complete their degrees on schedule
- View real-time updates on your students’ information
- Follow, filter and pull reports on your students and others
First: Set up your MFA security
Watermark uses a multi-factor authentication security system called Okta. Make sure you set up your Okta access before coming to any workshops.
