Updated by Customer Support
Tasks are great tools for counselors, allowing them to assign work or learning opportunities, keep track of progress for reporting, and provide extra guidance as students navigate their college prep and career readiness journey. If you have any thoughts about the direction we're taking Tasks, please share feedback!
Here, we'll cover:
- Accessing Tasks
- Creating a Task
- Assigning a Task to multiple or individual students
- Editing and deleting a Task
- Additional ways to manage Tasks
- Frequently asked questions
For quicker navigation, use the table of contents on the right to jump to a specific section 👉
Accessing Tasks
On the Tasks tab in Assignments, tasks are arranged in a table view, providing quick access to key details like title, topic, assignees, dates, and status.
From the Tasks tab, you can:
- Create, edit, and delete tasks
- Filter tasks based on start date, due date, topic, and status
- Send reminders to students assigned to tasks
- Preview tasks to see their details and add/remove assignees
- Export tasks along with the corresponding student information as a CSV file (we recommend using filters to to narrow what students/tasks are included in the export file)
What does each task status mean?
Active - This status lets you know the assignment is underway. The start date has passed, students have been assigned to it, but they have not yet completed it, and the due date has not been reached.
Overdue - This means the due date has passed, and students haven't finished the assignment.
Complete - Good news! All students assigned this task have completed it.
Creating a Task
- Go to Assignments > Tasks.
- Click +Add Task.
- Enter the details of your task like title, description, start date, and due date.
- Expand the Task details section to add a new or existing topic to help categorize your task, a video link, and attachments. (Supported video providers: YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, SoundCloud, Streamable, Vimeo, Wistia, Mixcloud, DailyMotion, Kaltura, Loom)
- Once you've added the details, click Save.
Your new task will now be listed in the table. Click on the title to view a preview of your task!
Assigning a Task to multiple students
For instructions on how to edit a task, head to the Editing/Deleting a Task section below.
- Go to your student roster and select all the students you'd like to assign the task.
- Click on the Manage Assignments icon above the table.
- Choose whether you'd like to Assign New Task or Assign Existing Task:
- For new tasks, follow the steps listed above in the Creating a task section above.
- For existing tasks, simply select one of your premade tasks.
- Once you've entered all your details, click Assign.
Now you can see and manage your assignment from the Tasks tab. Use the status column to keep track of your student's progress.

Editing/deleting a Task
- Go to the Tasks page and click on the (...) icon on the task preview or on that task's row on the table.

Your changes will apply to all students in the task.
Additional ways to manage Tasks

• Add columns for incomplete, completed, or overdue assignments, displaying the count of each type
From a student preview or profile, counselors can:
• Assign and unassign a task
• Mark tasks as complete or incomplete
From the task preview, counselors can:

Frequently asked questions
Do I need special permissions to create Tasks?
Are tasks automatically assigned to students?
Can I assign additional students to a task?
How can I view all students assigned to a task?
Can tasks be repurposed?
What do tasks look like for students, and when do they become visible to them?
Tasks assigned to students without a start date will be automatically visible to students. Tasks with a start date become visible to students once the start date is met.
How will students be notified about their tasks?
For new assignments, emails will be sent every hour to prevent overload. Within each hour, new assignments will be consolidated into a single email, indicating the count of new tasks. If an assignment has a future start date, students will receive an email at 8 am local time on that day.
Reminders will be sent immediately to students via email.
