Member Roles
Good to know
There are various member roles within courses. You can view and manage the distribution of roles in member management.
In addition to group coaches and group participants, there are also coaches and participants at the course level.
The term members encompasses all persons and their roles.
How to proceed
- In your course, click on Member management under Administration at the top.
- Member management opens.
- You can view and manage members, groups, bookings, and course rights via the menu (left).
- Select Members in the menu (left).
- A list of all members is displayed.
- The role or roles a member holds within the course are displayed in the Role column.
Member Roles
- (Course) Owner: Have all rights over the course and within the course (management of members, assessment of participants, editing the course structure, setting visibility and access rules, as well as copying, deactivating, and deleting the course).
- (Course) Coach: Have the option to assess (course) participants.
- (Course) Participant: Can view all elements and materials, provided the course or the elements are not restricted to a specific group.
- (Group) Coach: Can enter, manage, and delete participants within a group. Group coaches can assess the elements associated with the group, provided their assessment is possible.
- (Group) Participant: Can view group-dependent elements.
Assignment of the various roles
- The creator of the course is automatically the owner. Additional owners and coaches are entered manually in member management via the Add member or Import members button (see Member Management). Participants can be booked into the course via a booking method or entered manually.
- To enter members into groups, a group must first be created. The person who created the group is automatically the group coach. Additional group coaches can also be entered manually into the groups (see Member Management). Group participants are either entered manually, or they can enroll themselves via the Enrollment element in the course.
- If a member is to receive an additional role or the role is to be changed, the member's roles can be edited by clicking on the name.
- For multiple identical role changes, check the respective members before the name and click on the Edit button (bottom of the page); in the opening member list, you can edit the selected members or their roles at once.
- Groups can also be used to regulate course and element access.
