🖥️ Anatomy of the CORE Team Dashboard
The Personnel Page
This is the first page that you will see upon logging into the application. The personnel page is typically the starting point for coordinators who want to search for deployable CORE members <LINK>, or monitor pending applicant submissions for approval <LINK>. To perform these tasks, the page consists of two main functionalities: 1) Search filters to help narrow down your search; and 2) Search results display (see visuals below).
Search Filters
For specific Instructions on how to use the more complex filters (i.e., the “Fire Centre/Home Location” and “Availability/Date Range” filter), as well as how to read the search results table with the availability filter applied, please see Finding Members to Deploy in Chapter 3.
Search Results
To learn how to approve a pending applicant and track their document submissions from the personnel page, please go to Reviewing and Approving Applicants in Chapter 3.
Tab Definitions:
Active: Refers to members who are currently active in the CORE program and are readily deployable.
Inactive: Refers to members who are no longer active in the program due to various reasons (e.g maternity leave, hiatus from program, etc.). They are unavailable for deployments during a fire season.
Pending Approval: Refers to applicants who have submitted their intake form, but have not yet been approved into the program as a CORE member.
Search Results Table Columns: “Active” Tab
Search Results Table Columns: “Pending Approval” Tab
Profile Page
Profile pages store individual BCWS member and applicant information. The member profile consists of six components:
Profile banner displaying information including the member’s name, member status (active/inactive), employee number, etc.;
Member Details section;
Member Availability;
BCWS section and roles that the member indicated they are interested and/or experienced in;
Skills & Certifications section; and
Notes section
Applicant Profile
While the applicant profile has the same six sections as the member profile, it also includes additional components, such as the pending applicant information banner and the intake requirements under Applicant Details, to help BCWS coordinators keep track of other applicant requirements for approval. To see how to approve an applicant to become a BCWS member, please see [SECTION TITLE, LINK] in Chapter 3.
👩💻 What Coordinators can do in CORE Team
Reviewing and Approving Applicants
From the dashboard, switch the toggle to “Show Inactive”
Click on a member that has “Pending Approval” next to their name to open the user’s profile on a new tab.
You will see an alert as “Pending Applicant Alert” which means that this profile needs to be reviewed in order to make this member’s status as active.
In order to be considered a “member,” the applicant pending review must have sent the following along with or soon after applying to the appropriate regional fire centre email:
Willingness Statement
ParQ Questionnaire
Proof that they have completed the Intro to TEAMS Online Orientation
Once you have confirmed that the above required documents have been received, the application has been reviewed, click “Complete Review”.
This will open up a “Confirm Review” pop-up window.
Click “Confirm” to confirm application has been reviewed and change the member’s status from pending approval to active.
Click “Cancel” to discard.
Once confirmed, the status changes to active and the toggle “Switch to Inactive” becomes visible.
