Profile and Settings ⚙️

Accessing Your Settings 🎯

To manage your profile and learning preferences:

1. On a computer: click your name (or the settings icon) at the bottom of the left-hand menu, then select Edit profile.
2. On a phone browser: open Profile, tap the settings icon at the top right, then select Edit profile.

The same menu also has a Dark mode switch and Log out. On a computer you'll see a sidebar for switching between Profile, Role, Skills, Update interests, and Weekly goal. On a phone you'll see them as a list. If you can't find Edit profile, your organisation has turned off profile settings - contact your admin.

Profile Information 👤

You can update your basic profile information in the Profile section:

• First Name and Last Name: You can edit both your first and last names - both fields are required
• Profile Picture: Click your avatar (with the camera icon) to upload a new image. Images must be smaller than 9 MB. Crop the image, then click Save
• When you change your name, click Save and you'll see a "Name updated successfully" message

Role Settings 💼

You can update your professional role which directly impacts your learning experience:

• Update Role: You can change your professional role selection at any time
• This affects the lesson recommendations you see on your For You page
• You'll use the same interface as during onboarding to select your role, and you may be asked "How experienced are you?"
• Click Save and you'll see a "Role updated successfully" message

Skills Management 🛠️

The Skills section shows the skills that personalise your learning:

• Hard Skills: The technical skills linked to your role
• Soft Skills: The personal and interpersonal skills linked to your role
• This list is view-only. Your skills come from the role you pick, so to change them, update your role in the Role section

Interests ❤️

You can fine-tune your learning interests in two categories:

• Tool Skills: You'll answer "Which tools help you do your job more effectively?" to get relevant recommendations
• Life Skills: You can select "What life skills would you like to develop?" with a maximum of 5 skills
• You'll use checkbox selections with small chips for easy browsing
• When you save changes, you'll see confirmation: "Interests updated successfully"

Weekly Learning Goal 🎯

You can set your learning commitment to help maintain consistency:

• Goal Setting: Open Weekly goal and you'll see the prompt "Ready to invest 5 minutes a day? Tell us how many days a week you're up for some learning with our app!"
• You can choose from goal options that update their descriptions based on your selection. Click Save and you'll see "Goal updated successfully"
• This helps with streak tracking and ensures you receive appropriate daily learning reminders
