Ever wondered what which Admin role does what? This guide may help you decide what roles are appropriate for your organization. For the protection of your company data, we encourage the best practice of assigning the minimum level of admin roles in order to do the tasks needed.
Summary of Admin Roles
(Listed in order of most permissions to the least)
Global - formerly known as Super Admin
Is the top Admin role. This role is reserved for the main overseer of your LMS, and can do anything from managing learners, managing content, creating/scheduling reports, and personalizing the look of the learner site.
Limited - formerly known as Group Admin
Limited Admins can view all learners and courses across all groups, and has many of the same abilities of the global admin except for
1. configuring the structure of the site (personalization, certification listings, custom fields etc)
2. configuring content (e.g. updating courses, managing learning paths, SCORMs, documents, and assigning learning paths to groups)
This role is suitable for someone that deals more with learners on a day to day basis, such as an HR contact.
