How to create a user
There are two types for users: End-user and Admin. Users can access their assigned courses, track their progress, and download certificates. Admins can in addition access the same things as a regular user, but also create groups, add users, access Statistics, and upload course packages.
Tip: It’s best practice to have your Groups in place before you create users. The reason is that users won’t be able to access their courses unless they’re a part of a group that has access to the specific course(s). Since access is managed at the Group level, this will make it a lot easier for you to set everything up.
Make sure you are on your Admin profile. If you are both an end-user and an admin, you can switch between your profiles by clicking on the profile icon in the top right corner and choose either admin or user profile.
- Go to the “Organisation” page
- Click on the drop-down button “Actions” and choose “+ New User”
- Fill out the form under the User information tab. You need first name, last name, username (usually e-mail address), e-mail address, and portal language.
- Check the box “Admin” to give the user admin access, if the user is also an admin
- Check the box “Send email to user when created” if you want to sent the user an invite to the platform
- Click on “Save” button
Tip: The system is automatically set to send an invite to the user. Uncheck this box if you don’t want this to happen.
