Adding an Administrator gives that person access to your course so they can view, support, and contribute to its development. This is also where you can grant access to team members from the Coursebox Branded Training Platform (Premium) if they are assisting you.
Add an Admin
- In the Course Editor, click the Manage Users and Groups icon.
- Select Users
- On the right hand side select Add User
- Type ‘@’ and their name and their profile icon will pop up.
- From the dropdowns select As Admin
- Then click add. The administrator would need a user profile to add them in.
The benefit of making someone an administrator is so they can contribute to your course in some way or you may want help from someone else at Coursebox Branded Training Platform (Premium). By making them an administrator they can see what you are doing and help or contribute.
Delete an Admin
If you need to take away Administrator access, follow these steps:
Open the profile of the person you want to remove as an Administrator.
- Their current roles (e.g., User Admin, Approved Expert) will display under their name.
Click the Edit icon (pencil) next to their name/status.
A box will appear showing their active roles.
Click the X next to User Admin to remove their Administrator access. (See screenshot 3)
Save Changes
The user will now lose Administrator permissions but will still keep any other roles assigned (e.g., Learner, Facilitator, or Expert).
Transfer Course Ownership
Super Admins can also transfer course ownership to another user when needed.
In Coursebox, Super Admins have the ability to transfer course ownership to another user. This is useful when a course creator changes roles, leaves the organisation, or when ongoing course management needs to be reassigned. The new owner will have full control of the course, including editing rights and administrative privileges.
Navigate to the course you want to transfer and click Edit Course from the top right menu.
Click the gear icon (⚙️) next to the Edit Course button to open additional settings.
From the dropdown menu, click on Transfer ownership at the bottom of the list.
A pop-up window will appear. Use the search bar to find the user you want to assign as the new course owner.
Click Transfer ownership to complete the process.
