Updating Your Profile on the Staff Directory
Learn about the information displayed on your DkIT staff directory profile and how you can update your profile.
Overview
The staff directory of the Institute provides a searchable, single location where the contact details and related information for staff can be accessed. Staff are organised into groups corresponding to DkIT's organisational structure.
The content published on staff pages must not include material which is offensive, threatening, defamatory, or illegal. DkIT reserves the right to remove staff profiles that are in breach of these terms.
How to Login
The staff directory uses Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication. Simply log in using your existing institute username and password, and you'll automatically be redirected to the directory. These will be the same credentials you use for other services, including Moodle, COREHR, and webmail.

- The building you're located in is now integrated with Mazemap
