How do I search for a colleague in the Tripartite Directory app?

Use the search bar at the top of the app to enter a name or CWID. The search function is designed for flexibility and allows full or partial names (first, last, or both). 

Please note that employees may be listed under their preferred name or their formal/legal name, which might differ from the name they are commonly known by. If a name search doesn’t return expected results, try alternate name variations. For the most accurate results, use the CWID as it is a unique identifier. 

What information is available in the Tripartite Directory mobile app?

The app includes profiles for faculty, staff, and medical students from WCM, NYP, and CUIMC. Additional user groups, such as non-medical students, will be considered for future enhancements based on organizational needs.
