# Strive Roles and Rights

Roles and rights for **Strive** are split between **Evaluation** and **Professional Learning**. Review assigned roles and rights to ensure your staff have the access they need.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** Run a report by going to **Management** > **Manage Users** and selecting **Print Role Report** and/or **Print Right Report** to view your district’s assigned roles and rights for specific applications.

The [**Eduphoria Roles and Rights Spreadsheet**](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mpnSjcTeI-HH85g7WNgu6FtLudTbJ7oYH8GQhXfn3Fs/edit#gid=2056499031) contains descriptions for all Eduphoria applications. Use the tabs to access all application **Roles and Rights** descriptions.

## **Understanding Roles and Access**

- **Access Level Notifications** provide access to the course management options depending on your access level within Strive.
- **Course** represents any professional learning or staff development opportunity offered at the district level, the local school, or virtually online (eCourses). Courses can involve groups of participants or one-on-one meetings. The life of a course begins when a course is created and ends when the course is marked complete.
- **District Course Editors** have all of the course management options of a Professional Development Administrator. District Course Editors can create and manage any district-level or school-level course.
- **School Course Editors** can manage and edit all courses created for their school.
- **Limited Course Creators** can only touch the courses they have created or courses they have been assigned to manage by a District Course Editor. This role is granted to people who need to create district-level courses but do not need to access and edit courses created by others.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** District and school courses use the exact same interface for creation. However, school courses are only available to the school for which they are created.

## **Best Practices for Roles and Rights**

| **Eduphoria Role** | **School Title** |
| --- | --- |
| Appraisal Administrator, Professional Development Administrator | These roles give the highest level of access to **Strive**. Apply these rights cautiously and typically to only a few district-level users. |
| District Appraiser | Superintendent, Assistant Superintendent, Executive/Senior Directors |
| School/Department Appraiser | Principal, Department Lead Supervisor |
| School/Department Limited Appraiser | Assistant Principal, School-based Department Supervisor |
| Appraisal Viewer | District-level Supervisor |
| District Walkthrough Appraiser | Curriculum Coordinators, District Department Heads |
| School Walkthrough Appraiser | Assistant Principal, Instructional Coaches, School Department Heads, Lead Teachers |
| Walkthrough Viewer | Assistant Principal, Instructional Coaches, School Department Heads |
| District Course Editor | Professional Development Coordinators, District PL Providers |
| School Course Editor | School Principals or their designees |
| Limited Course Creator | Any district employee who instructs PL courses |
| Professional Development Credit Approver, Professional Development Credit Viewer | Instructional Coach, Professional Development Support |

> [!WARNING]
> **Caution:** Only a few users should be **Appraisal or PD Administrators**. Users with **Appraisal** or **PD Administrators** have the highest level of access and can change settings and configuration options in **Strive**.

Each **Role** has certain **Rights** associated with it. When assigning a role to a user, a collection of rights is automatically granted to the user.

- **Do not** assign Rights at random.
- Assign **Roles** and edit **Rights** as needed. You can [run a report](/v1/docs/running-reports-to-view-user-roles-and-rights) to see which users are assigned specific Roles and Rights.
- Checking all Roles does not give a user more rights.
