With roles and rights, you determine what your administrators can do and see in the online academy. Some administrators may only have access to creating new courses, while others may be solely focused on adding new users. By giving them specific roles and rights, they can access the appropriate features within the online academy.

How to create roles?

In the online academy, you can easily create different roles and then assign them to your administrators. With each role, you can specify which rights are included. Examples of rights include adding and deleting users, creating content, and managing the settings of the online academy. We will explain step-by-step how to create a new role.

  • Go to 'Administrators' in the menu. This is the icon with the lock in the menu bar. Here you will see an overview of all administrators within your environment.

  • Click on the 'Roles' tab.

  • Click the plus icon in the top right corner to create a new role.

  • Give the role a name.

  • Select the group to which you want to add the role (likely the name of your organization).

  • Indicate on the right which rights are assigned to this role (scroll down for an explanation of assigning righs).

  • Click 'Save changes'.

  • Now, when creating an administrator, you can assign the created role.
