Accessing Suitable Using Google Groups

The awarding of credit for activity completion is assigned to a specific Google Group that was established when the activity was created. However, the initial login for Suitable will be your personal ACC account. To access Suitable as the Google Group:

1. Navigate to ACC’s Suitable production site.
2. Log in as yourself through Okta SSO. 
3. Log out.
4. Enter the Google group email address and hit continue.
5. Instead of clicking the blue sign-in button, click the light grey text at the bottom of the window that says Need Help Sign in Another Way.
6. Enter your password when prompted and Login. 

View Pending Approvals

Students can mark activities complete in Suitable. If the activity is set as an activity that must be approved to award completion, the request for credit will appear in the Approvals section of Suitable. Once these activities are marked complete by the user, the approver must verify completion and award credit.

1. Login to ACC’s Suitable production site.  
2. Click on Approvals on the left side of the page.  You will be presented with all activities that are pending approval. You can also filter the list by clicking on the For Me filter at the top of the page.
3. Click the activity that has a pending completion to see all users who are awaiting approval. 
4. For each user, click the appropriate button to award credit. You can also click on the checkboxes next to multiple individuals to award credit in bulk.

Note: You will only be able to award credit for Achievements under your area.

In addition to users manually requesting credit for an activity, activity administrators can award ad-hoc credit for activity completion.
