Summary
If you are co-teaching your course or have a course manager, you can give them varying levels of access to your course.
Additional course and school admin can help you design your landing page, send emails, manage student admissions, and interact in the community.
Any added course admin or staff should also create their own Maven accounts at maven.com/signup.
When to add course staff
You might be working with a team (co-instructor, course manager, session facilitator, etc.) so we've made it easy to add staff to your Maven account.
The are 3 levels of permissions you can provide.
Course-level permissions (access to one course only)
Course Facilitator - Course facilitators can only update cohort settings as well as manage students. They cannot send emails.
Course Admin - Course admins can update course and cohort settings as well as manage students and send emails.
School-level permissions (access to all courses in your school + all permissions)
School Admin - School admins have access to all functionality at every level of the platform.
How to add course staff
Only a school admin can edit these permissions.
How to add a School Admin
Go to your Dashboard → Settings
Scroll down to the “School admins” section
Click “+ School admin”
Enter the email address of the person you'd like to add
The added admin will not receive an automatic email invitation. They can create their Maven account at maven.com/signup using the same email address you added.
Once logged in, they’ll automatically gain access to your school with the assigned permissions.
How to add Course or Workshop Staff
Open your Course or Workshop
Go to Settings
Scroll down to the “Course staff” or “Workshop staff” section
Click “+ New course staff”
Enter the email address of the person you'd like to add
Select their role:
Course Admin
Course Facilitator
Just like School Admins, added staff members will not receive an automatic invitation email. They can create their Maven account at maven.com/signup using the same email address you added.
Once they log in, they’ll automatically have access to the course or workshop based on the permissions assigned to them.
