  2. Search for the individual user and click on their name in the user list to view the User Profile

  3. Click Edit under the name then click Edit User

  6. Depending on your organization, there will be options to add administrators for different populations.

  7. Check the box(es) for the Admin User Types

  9. Click Next and Update User to save the updates

Caution: Updating an existing user to an administrator will provide that user access to edit other learners’ data, update course configurations, and edit assignments.
