RE:  New Look and Location for UCPath Job Aids

UCPath job aids will move alongside other help resources and have a new look and format.

 Beginning September 1, links under the Help menu in the UCPath portal will direct users to UCPath search, where they can find job aids and other help resources. The new job aid format supports assistive technologies, and improved search capabilities make resources easier to find.

 What is changing:

  • New look: Job aids will display in a new, streamlined format. While they may look different, they will continue to provide the guidance users need to complete UCPath tasks
  • Help links: Links under the Help menu in the UCPath portal will direct users to the new location for UCPath help resources
  • Improved search: Users can search for job aids and other help content directly within the UCPath portal
  • Accessible: The new format supports assistive technologies and provides a more inclusive experience for accessing UCPath guidance

 

Action required

The previous UCPath help site links will no longer be available after September 1, 2026.
