The My Profile Transparency Uploads tab is only visible when a user has editing rights to an Intermediate School District (ISD), School District or Public School Academy (PSA). The upload tab is used to upload PDF reports or provide links to documents that comply with the Michigan Department of Education’s Budget and Salary / Compensation Transparency Reporting. A pick list of categories is provided to group the uploaded documents or links.
