This lesson will guide you through creating/editing/deleting a bulletin or banner blast. Banner Blasts and Bulletins are a great way to communicate with users to share tips and tricks, Benchmark dates, important Illuminate information, training support, etc.
All bulletins and banners are shared and can be seen by all users by default. The Bulletin and Banner Blast will expire after 90 days if it is not edited or deleted.
Where to Start

1. Click on the Administration Gear.
2. Under Other, select Bulletin List.
Adding a Bulletin/Banner Blast

Select Add Bulletin once in the Bulletin List.

1. Add the Bulletin Date you want assign to the bulletin.
2. Give a Description, basically what you want the bulletin to say. You can even put a link to a website in the description such as www.illuminateed.com and it will be clickable from the Dashboard, opening a new tab or window in the browser.
3. Check the Banner Blast checkbox if you would like this to be a banner blast instead, which will stream across the top of the page, rather than be housed within the bulletin widget.
4. Click Save.

You will get a confirmation, "Bulletin saved."
