Body
Who is impacted?: The update primarily impacts faculty and staff who regularly access Banner self-service tools for academic, administrative, or financial tasks.

- Three new cards have been introduced:
- Faculty Services:
- Course/Class List
- Final Grade Entry
- CLO Assessment Resources
- No Show Reporting
- Faculty Communications (Document viewing)
- Load and Compensation
- Finance Dashboard

While there are visual and location changes to the interface, the core functionality of the tools remains the same.
Where can I find the new links?: All Banner Self Service tools are now accessible via MyDashboard, this can be found on the MyGCC Landing page. For a brief time the Self Service Banner links will lead to MyDashboard. Once inside MyDashboard, the new cards are locked to the homepage.
When is this happening?: The transition to MyDashboard is effective as of October 1, 2025. Faculty and staff will begin accessing Self Service Banner through MyDashboard on Wednesday, October 1, 2025.
Why was this change made?: Support for Self Service Banner 8 has ended requiring the use of Self Service Banner 9. This transition began over two years ago and this is the final step in transitioning from the Self Service 8 menu system to the Self Service 9 menu system. We anticipate that this change will streamline access to frequently used tools, improve the user experience with a cleaner and more intuitive layout, as well as centralize access for easier navigation and future enhancements.
