Within BizLMS, managers and supervisors play a key role in overseeing employee learning and development. This article outlines the minimum privilege set required for a user to function effectively as an administrator within the platform.
Please note that granting Administrative Privileges are a two-step process. After assigning Administrative Privileges on the Learner's Profile, navigate to Libraries to grant your Administrator privileges over applicable Libraries.
Step One: How to Grant Administrative Privileges:
- Select Administration from the main menu dropdown
- Select People and then Learners from the sidebar menu
- Select view profile next to the desired learner
- Select the Privileges tab within the profile
- Select New Privilege on the right
- Select the privileges the new admin should have
- Click Add Privilege on the bottom right
At minimum, a supervisor or manager would need the Assign and Report to see the Administration option in their Navigation Dropdown.
Starting with the Learner Privilege, it is critical to select the appropriate team this profile should gain access to. Privileges can be set to an entire organization or a specific team within your structure.
- Assign: Allows an administrator to assign content to learners within their team.
- Report: Allows an administrator to report over their learners.
If the manager or supervisor needs to have access to the Administrative Dashboard for their team, we also need to add the Add and Edit privileges.
A Content Privilege will also need to be set within this Learner Profile.
- Assign: Allows an administrator to assign content out of the content group.
- Report: Allows an administrator to report over content within the content group.
Step Two: How to Grant Library Privileges
- From your homepage, select Administration from the main menu
- From the sidebar menu, select Learning followed by Libraries
- Select the library that you would like to grant privileges over
- Click the Privileges tab followed by New Privilege
- Select user(s) to give privileges to
- Check the box for Can Grant Access to Learners
- Indicate which team the user should be able to grant access to
- Click Grant Privilege
At minimum, managers and supervisors will need the Can Report (Read-Only) option selected. This will give them the ability to pull reports over content in the applicable Library or Libraries. This process will need to be completed for any library a manager or supervisor needs to report on.
By granting the privileges above, supervisors and managers can assign content to their team(s), modify course statuses, and pull reports.
