About Admin Users
Any non-student user of Texas College Bridge is an "Admin," even if they are not someone who you expect to handle administrative tasks. You can define the Role each user has, which defines what they have permission to do and see in EdReady. You can also add Category assignments to your users to limit their access to student data.
Create Admin Account
If you have permission to create Admin Accounts (ISD Administrator or School Administrator), you will be able to perform the following actions.
Option 1: Upload Contacts in Bulk
This is a multi-step process. Administrators can upload a list of users in a .csv file to create accounts. However, this process does not assign the Role or Categories. In the .csv file, you can specify the user's name and email address only. After the accounts have been created, you will need to visit each account and edit the user's settings.

All users will be created with a default role that includes reporting-only access. They can see all students in the ISD/Group.

Set Up Categories and Goals
After a user's account has been created, it is important that you edit the Categories and/or Goals associated with the account. If the user was uploaded in a bulk operation, you will likely need to edit their Role (all uploaded users will have default to having reporting-only access.)
