This article explains the rights that can be granted to provide users with specific levels of access in Beacon, including what each right allows users to do in the system.
Rights are the permissions assigned to users that determine which actions they can perform within the system. Assigning rights allows system administrators to control who can create, edit, view, or manage different aspects of the platform. For more information about roles and rights, see Setting User Roles and Rights.
Only users with the Manage Users right can grant rights to other users. To grant rights to another user, access the Users screen in Management, search for and select the user from the Users list, and then navigate to the Rights tab. Select the checkbox for each right you want to assign to the user and then click Save.
Create District Curriculum Courses
What does this right do?
The Create District Curriculum Courses right allows users to create courses for the entire district and to share private courses across the district. Users with this right have full access to all courses across the district.
Users who do not have this right can create courses but cannot share their courses with the entire district. However, they can contribute to a district-level course if the course creator shares it with them and assigns the necessary contributor level.
Who should get this right?
Assign this right to curriculum leaders at the district level or any district leader who should have access to creating district-level courses and curriculum content. Example: Curriculum Managers, Curriculum Directors, or Curriculum Coordinators.
