Getting Started for Instructors¶
Note
Organizations may choose to have separate accounts or individuals for each role (e.g. Organization Admin, Course Admin, Billing Admin, and Instructor), but other organizations may choose to have users with multiple roles. Organizations are allowed to grant Organization Admin, Course Admin, and Instructor permissions to a single account. Since this is possible, we have also included the Getting Started for Instructors video on this page.
