If you have a business account with at least one course licence that you or another user is taking, you can have an unlimited amount of managers; inviting a manager does not deduct a course licence (unless you also invite them to the course). In some cases you will need a manager to validate (verify) a course like the Forklift Operator's Certificate.
Company account holders: Click through to the Managers section from the Manage menu option.
You can see if a Manager's invitation is unclaimed (pending) or claimed (active), when they were added, who they were added by and what groups they can manage.
If you want your existing managers to be able to invite and/or delete other managers, scroll down to the Manager Permissions section below.
Existing manager: if you don't see the Managers option or the Manage menu option, as above, then inviting or deleting managers is not a permission you have. Please ask the main company account holder to give you those permissions in the site settings (see below).
Individuals: Click on Share your profile in the top menu.
You should then see if you have any managers already, and the options to invite or manage them.
Click on the Invite managers button, as per the above screen.
Add emails to the form. Choose the groups you would like them to be able to manage, then click Invite managers. Note: individual users must use the Default group.
The Manager will receive an email invitation from you with a link for them to establish their account.
Managers can also be trainees in your organisation if you invite them as a trainee, too. Check out the trainee permissions page to find out what they can do.
Managing courses and trainees: Manager permissions
If you want your managers to be able to do various trainee management tasks such as:
- Invite trainees
- Generate certificates
- Generate course validations
- View current invitations
make sure to go to Site settings and turn on Manager can invite trainees.
If you invite a manager they will be able to see any trainees who have taken courses in groups they manage and they will be able to validate the course.
Assigning managers to groups
If you need to change a manager's groups, go to Manage Managers (Manage > Managers). Click Options > Edit and then change the groups.
Every time you add a new group, you will need to edit every manager that needs to see that group.
Then click Save.
There is no bulk editing for Managers at the moment.
