Create Additional Administrators


Context

When access to the virtual mentoring platform is requested for the first time via the Mentor Connector, a program administrator is assigned to oversee the program. This initial program administrator is automatically designated as the main administrator, holding the highest access levels on the platform.

In this training article, we will guide you through the responsibilities and capabilities of the  administrator role. We will explore how you can effectively utilize your elevated access levels to maximize the platform's potential and support the goals of your mentoring program.

There are 3 program administrator levels:

Assign Mentors, Mentees and Relationships to a Member/Relationship Administrator

Member/Relationship Administrators can only view and communicate with the mentors, mentees and relationships that have been assigned to them by a program administrator.

Mentors and mentees should be matched by a Program Administrator prior to being assign to a Member/Relationship Administrator.  Member/Relationship Administrators do not have access to the matching functionality.

Both the main administrator and the program administrator can assign mentors, mentees and relationships to a Member/Relationship Administrator.

Managing Groups as a Member/Relationship Administrator 

Within the virtual mentoring platform, Member/Relationship Administrators have the ability to manage groups and facilitate effective interactions. They can also add their assigned members to specific groups and monitor group dynamics. However, it's important to note that Member/Relationship Administrators do not have the ability to create groups. This privilege rests with the Program Administrator, who establishes the groups, enabling Member/Relationship Administrators to manage them seamlessly.

As a Program Administrator, you possess the authority to create groups, thereby setting the foundation for effective collaboration and engagement. By leveraging this administrative capability, you enable Member/Relationship Administrators to efficiently oversee and nurture the interactions within their assigned groups.

Create a Group

1. The Program Administrator can create a group by clicking on the “Admin” tab on the left-hand side of the page.

image-1668018106867.png

1.2 Click "Collaborate" located under the "Messages" tile on the first row of the admin dashboard.

image-1687817488501.png

1.2.1 Then click "Group Mentoring".

image-1687817514014.png

1.3 Click Create Group.

image-1652898648974.png

1.4 Give the group a name and a description. In this example, we will use the name of the mentor as the group name.

1.5 Select a Group Status. For a brand-new group, based on your internal process, choose a status between the first three statuses listed. 

image-1652898744111.png

1.6 Optional: Attach a photo that is representative of the group. A different photo can be added based on the language selected on the platform.  Make sure to follow the recommended dimensions.

Here is an example of what groups with or without a photo would look like to the end user:

Add Members to a Group

2. Now that a group has been created, the Member/Relationship Administrator can start adding his assigned members to the newly created group. The Member/Relationship Administrator needs to return to the administrator's dashboard.

2.1 Click on "Members".

image-1652974152370.png

2.2 Click on Add to Group in the row of the mentor/mentee's name.

image-1652974273440.png

image-1652898945362.png

2.4 Repeat steps 2.2 to 2.3 for each member that needs to be added to a group.

3. The Member/Relationship Administrator can now view and access the Group by:

3.1 Clicking on the "Admin" tab and then clicking on the group name under the  "Group Names" column.

image-1652899372438.png
