# Understanding the Unified Student Profile

## Learn how the Unified Student Profile displays participant information and how the most recent registration updates determine the information shown.

 

#### **Before You Begin**

The Unified Student Profile combines participant information from all registrations into a single profile, making it easier for staff to quickly view important student details.

With the latest update, the profile now uses the **most recently edited or submitted registration value** for each field. This means the newest known information is automatically displayed throughout the Unified Student Profile.

**The Unified Student Profile may display information such as:**

- Identity
- Contacts
- Parent/Guardian information
- Emergency contacts
- Medical & Health Information

### **How the Unified Profile Determines Which Information to Display**

When a participant has multiple registrations, AfterSchool HQ compares the information across those registrations.

For each field, the profile displays the **most recently edited or submitted value** (also known as the **most recent known data point**).

 

**For example:**

- If a participant's phone number is updated on a new registration, the Unified Student Profile will display the updated phone number.
- If an emergency contact is changed on a later registration, the new emergency contact will be shown instead of the previous one.
- If an older registration is edited after a newer one, the information from that edit becomes the most recent value and will be displayed in the profile.

 

> 💡 **Tip:** The Unified Student Profile is designed to display the most current participant information available across all registrations.

#### **Frequently Asked Questions**

**Q: How does the Unified Student Profile decide which information to display?**

**A:** The profile displays the most recently edited or submitted value for each individual field across all of the participant's registrations.

**Q: What happens if a participant has multiple registrations?**

**A:** The Unified Student Profile combines information from all registrations and displays the most recent known value for each field.

**Q: Will editing an older registration update the Unified Student Profile?**

**A:** Yes. If an older registration is edited after newer registrations, the updated values become the most recent known data and will appear in the Unified Student Profile.

**Q: Does the Unified Student Profile replace registration records?**

**A:** No. Individual registrations remain unchanged. The Unified Student Profile simply provides a consolidated view of the participant's most up-to-date information.
