      Creating Users in Training Marketplace

      Determining User Types and Creating New Users in Your Training Marketplace Portal

      You can create new Training Marketplace users one at a time directly from your admin dashboard. This is the fastest method for adding a small number of learners, instructors, managers, or admins.

      User types in Training Marketplace

      Before you create a user, decide which user type they need. Each type controls access, permissions, and what the user can manage.

      Learner

      Learners can:

      • Log in to Training Marketplace

      • Take assigned courses

      • Communicate with instructors

      Learners cannot view other users, access other learners’ course results, or run reports.

      Instructor

      Instructors have all learner permissions plus the ability to:

      • Lead courses

      • Mark assignments

      • Mark attendance for ILT Center sessions

      • Run course progress and results reports

      Instructors can only see learner data for the courses they lead.

      Manager

      Managers oversee specific groups in the LMS. Their permissions apply only to their assigned groups. Managers can:

      • Change learner names or email addresses

      • Disable or enable learner login access

      • Set or reset passwords

      • Set account expiration dates

      • Edit custom user data fields

      Managers cannot view other groups or see individual learners outside their assigned groups.

      Admin

      Admins have full access to the portal. Admin permissions include:

      • Creating and maintaining all user types

      • Assigning user roles

      • Enrolling and unenrolling users

      • Running reports for all users

      Admins manage every part of Training Marketplace.

      Creating a new user

      Use this method to create one or a few users manually.

      Step 1. Open the create user window

      1. Log in to Training Marketplace.

      2. Click Users in the left navigation panel.

      3. Click Actions.

      4. Select Create.

      Step 2. Enter basic user information

      Fill out the required fields:

      • First Name

      • Last Name

      • Username (must be unique, best practice is a company email address or employee ID)

      • Email address (optional, but required if the system needs to send notifications)

         

      Step 3. Choose the user type

      Select the appropriate user type: Learner, Instructor, Manager, or Admin.

      Step 4. Set the password

      If you are not sending the user an automatic invite, you must create a password.

      • Passwords are case sensitive.
      • You can toggle on the option that requires the user to change their password at first login.
      • You can assign a shared password if desired, but this is less secure.

      Step 5. Optional profile settings

      You can also set:

      • An account expiration date

      • Group membership for the user

      • Driver ID#

      Step 6. Save the user

      Click Save.

       

      The new user account is now active in Training Marketplace. If you created the password manually, make sure you send the user their username, password, and the login URL.
