What are the myMason organization roles?

Organization Roles control access to the content and tools within an organization. Users are assigned a role for each organization in which they participate. For example, a user with a role of Assistant in one organization can have a role of Student in another Organization.

Organization Roles determine access to the following:

  • Organization Files/Content Collection:  Add/Edit organization content
  • Grade Center: Grade participant submissions; Create and edit grade columns and values
  • Organization Tools: Access all the organization tools
  • Evaluation: Run Reports, Performance Dashboard and Access to Retention
  • Users: Create/Edit/Delete Users from the Organization
  • Groups: Add/Edit/Delete Groups in the Organization
  • Customization: Access to Enrollment Options, Guest and Observer Access, Properties, Quick Setup Guide, Teaching Style, and Tool Availability
  • Packages and Utilities: Perform archiving functions of the organization, Bulk Delete, Organization Copy

The Organization Role is set when a User is enrolled. It can also be edited after enrollment from the Control Panel.
