Add instructors to a course

This article is about the new JUNO learning management system (LMS). If you don’t see these features on your site, your platform still uses the legacy JUNO courses.

Add instructors to an existing course so that they can edit it.

About instructors

The Instructor role turns a basic user into an administrator of a course. It’s a great way to give course teachers the ability to edit their own content. A single course can have multiple instructors.

Instructors can only edit the courses they are attached to. This includes all settings like the start and end date as well as the lessons and resources.

But instructors can’t enroll or unenroll learners and they can’t see any learner information. (This means they can’t see the Enrollment tab in the editor.) To give them those permissions, add them as a Manager too. Talk to your JUNO team about adding managers.

They can also create new courses.

Learn more about all user types and permissions for courses.

Add instructors

In the Course Info tab, select one or more users from the Instructors dropdown menu. Save your changes.

If an instructor creates a new course themselves, they are automatically added as the instructor for that course.

To help instructors find and edit their courses, we recommend sharing instructions about opening the course editor and our collection of course creation guides.
