Personal Details Information

Since the University personal profile pages were decommissioned, users have not had a way to update their personal information or add an address. This means that there are no address details being pulled through to the PEOS system. However, if you would like to amend this, then you can do so by updating your personal details, which can be found in the location where you log in and at the top right of the screen. Click on your name, choose personal details and then amend your details in the box that appears. Once saved, this will then (only) update the PEOS system PI address. 

To proceed to your Work Area, please click on Log In in the upper right side of your screen.
