# User Roles

Foretell AI has an organizational structure of roles for users.

## Learners

These users can play simulations and submit assignments in courses they have been added to.

## Authors

These users are able to create new simulations. Learners will not be able to play these simulations unless that simulation has been added to a course that the Learner is in or has been shared directly with the Learner.

## Course Admins

These users are typically professors and teachers. They are responsible for adding and removing simulations in their course, managing assignments and tests, and evaluating student submissions.

## Department Admins

These users are responsible for managing different classes within their department. 

For example, an organization may have a Business Department. Every course within this department such as "Finance 101" and "Negotiations 102" will be created by a Department Admin, and then assigned a Course Admin to manage that class.

## Organization Admins

These users are responsible for creating different departments. There will typically be a single organizational admin associated with the client code that cannot be deleted. Other organization admins can be created, though they will take up additional seats.
