A System Role can be assigned to a User. A System Role determines what a User can see and do in the LMS or Gamebrain apps, based on permissions.
There are five levels of default System Roles for the LMS with an additional one for Gamebrain customers (a Standard User is the default role and all other roles need to be allocated):
|
User |
This is the default setting for Users registered onto the Unicorn LMS. Users are able to progress through learning, Assessments and other Activities that are assigned to them on their training plan. They are also able to register themselves for Activities (or express their wish to register, depending on the settings of the site) via Find Learning and also run Reports on their activity on the site. Gamebrain only customers: Users will not be able to access the LMS and will only be able to access the app to play the Gamebrains. |
|
Line Manager |
Line Managers are given an overview of their staff’s activity on the site via the My Team page and My Team Activity dashboard. Line Managers are also able to report on the Users that are assigned to them. Gamebrain only customers: no Line Manager functionality enabled on the app and will have the same access as a User. |
|
Reporting Administrator |
Reporting Administrators are given access to the full reporting capability on the Unicorn LMS allowing them to view more types of Reports, as well as create their own Reports. Gamebrain only customers: no reporting functionality available on the app. Only Administrators can pull reports from the LMS. |
|
Administrator |
Administrators are the highest level of User and able to carry out a lot more tasks than all other Users, such as assigning activities to Users via Content Manager, as well as creating Pathways and Activities within the LMS. Administrators are also able to carry out administrative tasks in the Organisation and Users area, such as making changes to Users’ accounts (email address, username, changing passwords, unlocking accounts etc.), have full access to the reporting capability within the LMS, and much more. Gamebrain only customers: Have access to the LMS to create and manage player accounts; create, manage and register Gamebrains; and run reports on Gamebrain activity. |
|
Content Creator |
A Content Creator has access to Content Manager so that they are able to create and manage content within the LMS. Gamebrain only customers: Have access to the LMS to create and manage Gamebrains and access the Leaderboard. |
As an Administrator, you are able to allocate these default System Roles in the System Roles tab in a User's profile of the LMS.
A Super Administrator can create new System Roles in Site Settings. Take a look at our guide Create System Roles in Site Settings to find out how to do this.
