Education
The Education screen provides a concise view of the employee’s education background. Information available from this screen includes the following: year of degree, degree, type, academic discipline, and university. Additionally, there is a column to indicate whether or not this information is official. Official degrees are listed by date, and are check marked under the official column.
Users with edit privileges can add new education information and edit or delete existing education information. The "Highest Degree Obtained" by the employee can be changed by clicking on the field and selecting a new degree level from the available drop-down menu.
Add a New Degree
Users with appropriate privileges can add a new degree. If no Education records exist for this employee, click Add one now? to add a new Education record.
