STDNT INSTR ADV DIRECTORY

DATA VIEW NAME
STDNT_INSTR_ADV_DIRECTORY
OVERVIEW
This view contains directory information for each individual flagged as a potential instructor or advisor found in the SIS Student Information System. This view should have one row per ID. Some contact information such as e-mail address will only be present if an instructor/advisor has an active or future appointment in the University’s Human Resource System. The ISIS Student Information System on the other hand keeps instructors/advisors active historically – for about three years, even if they have not taught a course or do not have student advisees. Therefore, there will be instances of instructor/advisor rows in this view without email, work address, or work phone.
LOAD FREQUENCY
This view is refreshed each week day morning.

SPECIAL
CONSIDERATIONS
It is advised that you use this data view in conjunction with term specific data views such as Stdnt_Timetable_Multiterm or Stdnt_Course_Roster_Multiterm to get contact information on instructors currently teaching.

The population of instructors and advisors comes from the ISIS student information system, which keeps records active for a three year. Currently, if an instructor has not taught in the past three years, that instructor record is inactivated in ISIS and eliminated from this data view upon refresh. See data definition for Academic_Org for additional special considerations.
