Taskstream Information
Taskstream is the designated electronic assessment and management system used by the Cato College of Education at UNC Charlotte to collect and document candidate performance in all education programs. State and national accreditation requirements for academic programs make the use of this type of electronic management and reporting system essential for standards-based accountability purposes at all levels. All COED students will be required to submit electronic pieces of evidence at various points in their education program. Program enrollment codes are available on this website. Cato College of Education provides Taskstream accounts to all students in an education program. Students should not pay for a subscription. Please be advised that Taskstream works best in Google Chrome or Firefox.

Common Questions:
- What is an enrollment code and where do I get it?
An enrollment code associates you with the correct DRF. The enrollment code comes from your instructor or program coordinator to ensure that you have the correct code. Click here for a list of most codes.
- Why does my login say “PersonID not found”?
Your account was not automatically created. To create your account, send an email to taskstream@charlotte.edu including your full name, UNC Charlotte id number, and UNC Charlotte email address.
- Why does an assignment say outdated?
Your academic department requested a major change to the EE or rubric. In order to facilitate that request, the DRF had to be altered so users that have not completed that EE will see only the newest one. Since you began work under or even completed the old EE, you will see both the new and old versions. If you have completed the outdated EE there is no need for you to submit anything for the new version.
- Why does my account say it is expired?
Your account is automatically created when you are registered in a course with a piece of electronic evidence, if you have not logged in within the last semester your account is inactivated. To renew your account, send an email to taskstream@charlotte.edu including your full name, UNC Charlotte id number, and UNC Charlotte email address.
NOTE: You do not need a renewal code and definitely should not pay for a Taskstream account at this point.
- My video will not upload into Taskstream. What can I do?
There could be a few reasons why the video will not upload such as file size, internet speed, network traffic, and other factors. Videos must be 500 MB or less to be uploaded into Taskstream. If your video file is large, you may want to try compressing it to a smaller size. Larger files may cause the process to freeze altogether. Taskstream does provide some suggestions for video formatting on this site.
