Managing administrators

Eduvem has a layered permission system: a role applies either to the whole institution or to one specific class, and a broader role automatically includes everything the narrower roles can do within its scope.

Role What it does
Institution Admin Full control: settings, content, classes, participants and reports
Global Class Administrator Enrolls participants and answers messages in every class of the institution, with no access to the other settings
Global Class Observer Views enrollments and generates certificates for every class, without changing enrollments or settings
Content Publisher Changes the settings and material of content, without the other administrative powers
Role What it does
Course Class Admin Manages that class: settings, enrollments, scores and chat
Course Class Observer Follows that class in read-only mode
Tutor Supports the participants of the class, without changing settings or enrollments

For large institutions, divisions offer a middle ground: a division administrator manages only the classes assigned to their division, without seeing the rest of the institution. A person does not hold a division role and a whole-institution role at the same time - it is one or the other.

  • The person must belong to your institution and must not be deleted to receive a role - even a disabled participant can receive an administrative role.
  • The platform rejects duplicate assignments of the same role.
  • Every role assignment and removal is recorded in the institution’s audit history.

Always grant the smallest role that solves the need - and review the list of administrators periodically.
