How do I set permissions for course-level roles?

In Global Navigation, click the Admin menu [1], then click the name of the account [2].

In Account Navigation, click the Permissions link.

Click the Course Roles tab.

Teachers are the only course-level user that can read SIS data. The other permissions are varied, with students and observers having fewer permissions than teachers and TAs.

The following permissions can be set for course-level users:

• Read SIS data
• Add, edit and delete events on the course calendar
• Add/remove other teachers, course designers or TAs to the course
• Add/remove students for the course
• Change course state

Remember, the green check mark or red X indicates the permissions for allow or deny the action and also they are editable, you can override the default setting and the transparent green check mark and red X are non-editable. You will see a menu to enable, enable and lock, disable, disable and lock and use default.

Note: If there is transparent red X or green check mark button to click, then you cannot change the permission.
