Add or Remove Organization Owners

The person who created the organization is automatically considered the Owner. However, you can add other owners with Admin permissions to perform administrator tasks. You can do this by adding a new user to your organization or adding an existing user as an Owner. Below are step-by-step instructions on adding an Owner via both options(Note: only an Owner can add Owners).

Adding a New User as an Owner

Follow these steps to add a new user to the Owners group in your organization:

1. Click your profile icon in the lower left corner of the screen.

   

2. In the Organizations tab, click the name of your organization.

   

3. Click the Members tab.

   

4. In the Invite Teacher to the Organization section, enter in the Teacher Email and in the invite as section select the Organization owner from the drop down.

   

5. Click Send Invite.

   An email is sent to the teacher that contains a link to sign up. Upon completing the sign up process, they are added to your organization as an Owner.

   Note

   They must use the email address the invitation was sent to for sign up or they will not be added to the organization.
