Accessing Mentor Gradebook Reports in the SLP

Intended Audience: Mentors 

About

The Mentor Gradebook Reports feature, located within the Student Learning Portal (SLP), allows mentors to access confidential academic performance data for the students they support. These reports are provided in PDF format and are password protected for security. Mentors must follow a specific process to generate the password and access their reports.

Important: If a user holds both mentor and affiliation roles, it is essential to select the Mentor role from the dropdown menu to view these reports.
