Changing Language, Graphics or other Preferences

Within EKP, users can:

• change their language preference (e.g. whether they want screens to display in Chinese or English).  This list will be constantly changing as other choices are added to the system.

• choose:

• to be automatically be added to Knowledge Center contact lists;

• to receive appraisee enrollment notification email messages.  If the volume is overwhelming, managers can turn off the routine informative email messages.  Exception-based e-mail messages are always sent, even if this option is turned on or off.

• to have EKP to display animated graphics versus static graphics;  both are setup as administrators of the system endeavor to create an appealing, snappy interface for new users, but experienced users may eventually prefer less distracting static graphics.

• preferences (e.g. catalogs/categories of information) for automatic news article routing.  If an administrator sets up news informations that are targeted for that category, the user will automatically see the article on his/her Home page.

To update your language or graphics display preference(s):

1. Click on User Preferences in the Personalize screen. The User Preferences page appears.

From here proceed to:

• Change the look of your EKP  user interface (i.e. change your Skin Selection)

• Change the language display

• Change the start up screen

• Choose to be automatically added to mailing lists

• Send 'enrollment approved' email messages when any direct report (i.e. appraisee) enrolls in a learning module/class

• Turn on or turn off support for animated graphics

• Specify preferences for retrieving related news articles (i.e. Setting Targets)
