The Dashboard allows you take a quick temp of the activity on your KB Site at a glance. From the Home Tab, you may also update your user profile by clicking on the My Profile link. You may access KB Monthly Advisory Meeting Minutes from this screen, as well as your Internal/ or External site(s).

When you click on the Home tab, by default, you will land on the Dashboard screen.

There are various panels on the Dashboard screen with which you can interact.
