Assign roles at school/department level

An image about the role assigned at school/department level

Overview:

This guide will show you how to assign roles at a school/department level.

 

What to know:

Departmental professional services staff with administrative permissions on the LM Core can assign users roles at a category level. Assign roles at a category level instead of a module level gives the user the assigned permission in ALL the modules in that category. It is a fast way of giving the user access to all the modules without having to enrol the user into each module. In addition, the modules will not appear on the user's dashboard and take a lot of spaces. Check on  ">  about the permissions that different roles have.
