Roles
While the set of roles in PathcoreScholar cannot be modified, the set of permissions associated with each role is visible. A user's permissions are the set of actions the user can perform with the data that is accessible to them (e.g. edit, view, delete). To learn more about each permission, see Permissions.
System Roles
There are three roles that are pre-defined in the system. These roles cannot be modified and are always available. The predefined roles are as follows:
- Administrator: users with this role can create users, access team management functions, and have access to all classes and all the data in the Repository
- Educator: users with this role can create classes, enroll existing users into classes, manage class content, access class reports, and have access to all the data in the Repository
- Student: users with this role can only access the classes they have been enrolled in from the student portal and cannot access the Repository
Permissions
Permissions define the set of actions that users can perform with the data that is accessible to them (e.g. download, edit, view).
