⭐Department Management

The role of the Department Admin is to create courses and assign Course Administrators to manage those courses.

Once you have been assigned as a department admin, it is time to create Courses and assign Course Admins.

First, sign in to your account at this link.

Use the left sidebar to select the "Departments" tab. You should see a list of departments that you manage. To add courses to your department, click on the button to the left of the department in the list that looks like a graduation cap.

This will take you to the "Courses" tab. If you have been made department admin of multiple departments, you can switch between them using the options at the top of the page. To create a new course in a department, click on the square with a plus sign in it to open the "Create New Course" page.

Each course comes with a title and a code which will appear below the course title. After typing in a "Course Title" a course code will automatically generate, but you can change it to something like "PAR-101" if you want it to match a course code associated with a real world class.

You can choose a Start Date and End Date for the course to help you keep track of which courses are from past classes and which ones are current.

Once you are done filling out the information, click on the "Confirm" button in the bottom right corner.

Now that a course has been created, it is time to assign the Course Admin that will manage it.

Use the left sidebar to select the "Manage Users" tab.

Click on the arrow next to the department that contains the course you just created. Find the Course you wish to assign to a Course Admin and click on the "Manage Course Users" button.

In this new page you can manage the users in the course. By default, near the top of the page there is a button labeled "Add Course Admins" that has already been selected. In the "Add existing course admins" section, use the search bar to look for the Course Admin level account you wish to manage this department, then select it from the dropdown menu. Once you have added all the course admins, click on the green "Confirm" button.
