All of our platforms are connected to the same user management system. If you add teachers and learners to the Admin Hub in one, then they will appear under those headings in all the others.
Consequently, Academy customers may find that some of their CPD learners are already registered as 'Teachers'. However, you cannot assign Academy courses to 'Teacher' accounts.
Setting up CPD learner accounts
To assign Academy courses to CPD learners, and to avoid present or future conflicts with their login details as 'Teachers' to other platforms, please follow the steps below:
- Log in to Academy.
- Click Admin Hub in the bottom left.
- Go to the purple Classes tab.
- Click New class.
- Give the class a relevant name ('CPD Training', for example).
- Click Save class.
Next, go to the blue Students tab and create username accounts for your CPD learners. You can add them individually or in bulk via CSV.
You MUST register them with usernames and passwords rather than email addresses, and ensure that you add them to the CPD training class you created at the beginning.
Once the CPD learner logins have been added, you can assign courses to them.
Finishing up

If necessary, you can revoke access to Academy for non-CPD admin staff under the 'Teachers' tab and non-CPD learners under the 'Students' tab. See Managing users access in Academy for further guidance.
