Assigning Report Viewers
WHO ARE REPORT VIEWERS & WHO GETS TO ASSIGN THEM?
Report Viewers can include administrative staff (Managers of Academic & Administative Services, Administrative/Program Assistants, etc.) and senior management (Chairs, Deans, Associate Deans, etc.). These report viewers will be able to view the Course Reports of all courses within their Department/School that had an active course survey. They will also be able to view the Academic Unit Data on the CES Dashboard.
Managers of Academic and Administrative Services will have the ability to assign report viewers for their Department/School and associated Faculty through their . Prompts to do so will be emailed by the CES team at the end of each semester to ensure that the right people will have access to reports after the end of term CES reports are released.
DATA PRIVACY AND SECURITY
Please note that assigning access means giving someone the ability to log into the CES portal and view/download reports for each course in a specific subject area. Some units may want to restrict access and just have one or two people log in and download reports to disseminate. CES data is considered sensitive and as such, report viewers should follow the best practices set by ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV’s Privacy Office when handling this information.
The CES team recommends that each report viewer logs in and views reports within the CES portal rather than downloading them or saving them to individual computers. If your department/school has established secure data storage procedures then it may be appropriate to download and disseminate reports yourself.
Adding or failing to remove a report viewer that should not have access is a privacy breach. Please update and publish report viewers regularly when prompted. If you need assistance at any point during the semester to make any changes, contact cesurvey@sfu.ca.
