Accessing Banner 9 Self-Service: A Guide for Faculty and Advisors
For faculty members and advisors, navigating the world of academic administration just got easier with Banner 9 Self-Service. This comprehensive platform offers a range of features designed to streamline daily tasks.
Exploring Banner 9 Self-Service
To access Banner 9 Self-Service, simply navigate to your institution's Banner Self-Service portal using your credentials and DUO authentication. Once you're logged in, you'll find yourself on the Self-Service homepage. From here, you can access class rosters, grade entries, and other academic information directly through the interface without needing additional access requests.
Faculty Grade Entry
For faculty grade entry, you'll typically locate your courses and input final grades and mid-semester reports on students through the Banner Self-Service or through a Faculty Grade Entry section if available.
Key Dates and Training
To find related information on key dates such as grade submission deadlines or academic calendar milestones, consult your university registrar’s website or institutional calendar. These are often linked within Banner Self-Service or the registrar's faculty resources webpage.
Some universities may require faculty to complete FERPA tutorials and training before gaining full administrative capabilities beyond basic self-service. However, faculty usually have automatic access to grade and roster functionalities.
The Grading Information and Key Dates Web Page
The Grading Information and Key Dates web page serves as a hub for Faculty Grade Entry information and key dates. This valuable resource offers a comprehensive overview of Faculty Grade Entry, providing details about the process and associated dates. It also offers tools for entering consents and overrides.
In summary, to make the most of Banner 9 Self-Service, log into the platform with your institutional credentials, use the Student or Faculty tiles to access roster and grading tools, check your registrar or academic affairs site for key academic dates and grade submission guidelines, and complete any required training or access requests for administrative functions if necessary.
Remember, while this guide offers a general approach, it's always a good idea to confirm with your specific institution’s IT support or registrar’s office for exact URLs and protocols. The example sources include App State’s Self-Service guide, Lamar University’s faculty guide, and W&M’s access and training process description.
Utilizing technology through Banner 9 Self-Service, faculty and advisors can engage in education-and-self-development by learning to navigate academic administration more efficiently. For instance, faculty members can harness the power of technology to facilitate grade entry and manage class rosters with ease.
