Cannot view the Training Materials page for assigned courses.

This permission is needed, besides any relevant permission on enrollments, to see the Enroll button in courses.

Courses / CreateCan create courses

Power Users who can create or edit courses can also access the Question Bank (they cannot create questions, but they can view and edit them, and assign them to the tests in the courses they manage).

Power Users will always have visibility on the courses they create, even when they are not enrolled in them, or they are not assigned to the course, or to any of the learning plans and catalogues including the course.

Can view the training materials page for assigned courses.


Can add and edit training materials in the course.


Can select which version of a training material from the Central Repository can be placed into a course of which they have permission to edit.


Can manage training material settings.

This permission is necessary if you want a Power User to have the ability to edit courses created by other Power Users.

The Power Users allowed to edit the courses assigned to them can also delete the courses’ thumbnails and reset them to the platform's default thumbnail for courses. Please note that Power Users need Image Management permissions in order to upload new thumbnails.

Courses / DeleteCan delete all assigned courses 
Courses / EvaluationCan evaluate their assigned users in their assigned courses

This permission allows Power Users to set the final score of a course, not the scores of single training material within the course.

When a Power User profile is assigned to this permission, the Power Users assigned to it will be also able to reset the tracking of the training material of e-learning courses (not for ILT courses). If you need Power Users to be able to reset the tracking of training material of ILT courses, set them as instructors for those courses.

Courses / Waiting SubscriptionCan manage the assigned users in a waiting list
