Accessing your student’s records
For you to access academic and financial information on your student’s record in Workday, they will need to grant you “Third-Party User Access” (aka “Third-Party Proxy”) in Workday. The student must initiate this process. Check out these detailed instructions on how to set up Third-Party User Access in Workday.
