1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a location determination and user identification system having at least one processor, data associated with a signal detected by a personal computing device, the signal being emitted from a location beacon at a banking center of a financial institution;
determining, by the location determination and user identification system, a location of the personal computing device based on the received data associated with the signal emitted from the location beacon, wherein the location of the personal computing device is within a predefined proximity of a location of the location beacon;
extracting, by the location determination and user identification system, a unique identifier associated with the personal computing device, the unique identifier including an international mobile station equipment identity (IMEI) of the personal computing device;
determining, by the location determination and user identification system and based on the extracted unique identifier associated with the personal computing device, an identity of an associate user associated with the personal computing device;
extract, based on the identity of the associate user associated with the personal computing device and from pre-stored information, a knowledge area associated with the associate user;
receiving, by the location determination and user identification system, a request for assistance in a first knowledge area;
determining, by the location determination and user identification system, whether the extracted knowledge area matches the first knowledge area;
tracking, during a predetermined time period, a location of the associate user associated with the personal computing device via the personal computing device;
determining, by the location determination and identification system, whether the associate user is at an expected location within the banking center at a predetermined time; and
responsive to determining that the associate user is not at an expected location, requesting a location update from the associate user, the requested location update including a request for a reason the associate user is not in the expected location.

Abstract
Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media configured to determine a location of a user, identify the user and provide additional services based on the determined location and/or identity are provided. In some examples, associate users may be identified and a location of each associate user may be tracked to identify a location of an associate user, confirm the location of the associate user is an expected location, and/or provide location information to a customer of the associate user.
