NOTE: Please keep in mind that the colors of the session will not ensure accuracy of the data. For example, if a tutor submits a session with no student hours (attendance) and the person reviewing or approving the session does not spot the omission a session could be green and remain inaccurate. The approval process was implemented for a supervisor to check for these errors and confirm the session is accurate.
