Setting Default Dashboard Widgets for Employees

The Teachworks dashboard is the first page that is displayed when you or your employees' log into your Teachworks accounts.  You can customize the widgets that are displayed on your employees' dashboards by default by following these instructions:

1. Click on Account & Settings and then click on "Dashboard Settings".
2. Click on the "Employee Default Widgets" option on the right-hand side.
3. There are two columns displayed on this page:
   • The first column is used to set defaults on your Staff accounts.
   • The second column is used to set defaults on your Teachers' accounts.
4. Check the boxes under each column that you would like to include.
