Update Your Profile Notification Settings

What Is It?

Profile Notification defaults can be configured so that you receive system notifications, email alerts, or both when key events occur or milestones are reached. You have the ability to edit these settings in your Profile to add or remove notifications for trigger events and change the notification type where applicable. Refer to the Modifying Profile Settings in the CU Marketplace job aid for additional guidance.

In addition, whenever you log into the CU Marketplace, be sure to check the Notification icon in the upper right corner of the screen to view any items requiring your attention.
