What are the different user types in Scoir?

The Counselor/Teacher Role

Team Members in Scoir can be both counselors and teacher/recommenders at the same time!


As a counselor/recommender, to see and respond to outstanding recommendation requests, choose Applications, specifically Recommendations. Your Recommendation requests will be available at the top of the page.

Counselor Recommendations and Teacher Recommendations are separate. Counselor recommendations are discussed here: Add A Counselor Evaluation/Recommendation
