Content Author Role
This article explains the Content Author role, its permissions, and when to use it.
A Content Author can access areas and features related to content. Their view of the admin portal will be limited to the tabs shown below (Content, Facilitate, Analytics).
Users that are assigned the Content Author role can perform the following actions:
- Create, edit, and publish courseware
- Create and publish Paths
- View Discussions and Assignments
- Access Course Summary and Survey Answers under the Analytics tab
In order to manage and respond to learners’ contributions in Discussions and Assignments, users will need the Facilitator role enabled.
The Content Author role was created with the likes of instructional designers in mind, who require the ability to manage content projects, track analytics, and monitor learner responses.
