There are 2 options available for reviewing a user's profile.
You can choose to "View" the profile which will allow you to see the profile information but not edit it.
Alternatively you can choose to edit the profile allowing you to edit and update the user's information as needed. You can switch between these 2 options using the "View" and "Edit" icons found next to the volunteer's status when in a profile.
View Profile
To view a profile use the quick search along the top of the page to find the user. From the quick search list, select their profile.

Updating the Language/Region Setting on a Profile
About this feature: You can set the language for your Volunteer Impact (and myimpactpage.com) profile to English, French, Spanish, or Portuguese. This is controlled by the “Region” setting in the Contact section of your profile. The region setting you choose will display system information (menus, buttons, messages) in the chosen language, but will also affect how you see date and time values in the software. The setting you choose, however, will not affect how other users see information in their own profile.
In the “Main” tab, click on the “Contact” sub-tab
Scroll down and select the desired Region from the dropdown list
Click the [Save] button (You’ll also need to refresh the screen, if changes were made on your own profile.)
