Staff can have either an Administrator account or a standard Staff account. Staff have the ability to monitor and support users which includes the following functions [viewing and editing user profiles, assigning roadmap steps, and tagging users]. In addition to staff permissions, Administrators are also able to manage platform configurations, manage staff accounts, and analyze data.

An Administrator has the ability to set and adjust some platform configurations, manage staff accounts, and pull data reports.

• Admin: Full access (manage staff, assign coaches, pull reports, manage catalog)
• Coach/Staff: Limited access (view and support assigned users, assign roadmap steps, tag users)
  • Coaches can be limited to see users by the following:
    • Those associated with their “group”, which may be those referred from their organization, who have taken their training program, etc.
    • Those assigned to them as a coach

If you have Admin access:

1. Go to the top of the Manage Users Table.
2. Click “Invite Coach”
3. Enter the coach’s email and, if using group permissions, select the coach’s organization from the dropdown.

A group is a cohort of users that you want to separate for the sake of coach/staff visibility.

To create a group as an admin, follow these steps:

1. Go to the “Group” section in the left-hand navigation bar.
2. Click the button “+ Group”.
3. Enter the name of the Group.

Please note, groups cannot be deleted at this time once created.

Users can be assigned to a group in two ways:

1. Through a unique sign-up link:
   1. Go to the Manage Section of your Admin account
   2. Click on the Links Section at the top of the page
   3. Click “+ Link”
   4. Enter the name you want associated with the link and select the group you want associated with it. [Note: The link name cannot be the same as an existing tag name]

1. Select the users you would like to add to a group by selecting the checkbox on the left hand side of their row in the table.
2. Click the more button and select “Manage Group/Employer”
3. Select the Group you’d like to assign them to from the drop down button.

  • Experience by Career Areas & Role
  • Most Common Skills Across Profiles
  • Users by Tag

  • Visits, Clicks to Learn More, Clicks to Apply to Jobs
  • Visits, Clicks to Learn More, Clicks to Enrol to Learning Opportunities
  • Visits, Clicks to Learn More, Clicks to Select Careers

To gain access to Insights, please request it from your CSM. Please note, Insights is only available to Admin not Coach accounts.

Admins can pull reports by:

1. Selecting the users you’d like included in the report from the manage jobs table (you can press the down arrow button at the top of the checkbox column to select all users).
2. Click the more button at the top of the Manage Jobs Table.
3. Select Export
4. Name the Export
5. Go to the Reports Section at the top of the page
6. Your report will be there to download when ready [May take up to a few minutes for large reports].

Admins can generate reports to access the following data points:

• User name
• User contact information
• User location
• Education Experience
• Work Experience
• Tags
• Answers to form questions

Reports can be exported as a csv for internal tracking or grant reporting purposes.

Tags are labels assigned to users to help staff organize and support learners. Examples include: support needs, program affiliation, community group membership. Tags make it easier to filter reports, assign coaches, or run targeted outreach.

• To assign: Select a user (or group of users) in the Manage Users Table → click Assign Tag.
• To remove: Open a user’s profile → click the pencil icon near their name → remove the tag with the “x.”

Use the drop-down at the top of the Manage Users Table. Multiple tags can be combined using AND, OR, or NOT filters.

Tracking links are unique URLs you can share with job seekers in order to associate them with a tag and/or group. When a user signs up using your tracking link, they will automatically be associated with that tracking link, making it easier to attribute engagement to your organization or program.

• Outreach campaigns (emails, flyers, community events)
• Partner referrals (assigning credit to referring organizations)
• Program-specific cohorts (separating learners into different groups)

1. Go to the Manage Section of your Admin account
2. Click on the Links Section at the top of the Manage Section.
3. Click “+ Link”
4. [If applicable] Enter the name you want associated with the link and select the group you want associated with it. [Note: The link name cannot be the same as an existing tag name]

Admins can find their tracking links and copy tracking links for specific staff, partner organizations, or campaigns through the Links Section in the Manage Section of their Admin accounts.

Tracking link data flows into the Insights Dashboard and in exportable CSV reports, allowing you to see the number of sign-ups by campaign or partner.

Go to the Manage Users Table → click a user’s name. From here, you can view the following sections:

• Overview
• Assessments

The assessment section holds space for you to enter any assessment data associated with a user. If you would like to pursue an integration with an assessment, please contact your CSM.

• Completion – Track if users are marking off roadmap steps as complete.
• Assigning – Create a new roadmap step for a user. This could be a pre-created roadmap step saved in your library or a custom step.

Yes. Click on the user’s profile → Roadmap tab → “+ Assign Next Step”. You can choose between selecting a pre-created step from your library or creating a custom roadmap step. Roadmap steps can be in the following formats:

• Assessment – Link to an existing assessment
• Form – Link to an internal form on the platform
• Link – Link to a URL (whether external or in platform)
• Text – Display an announcement or instructions to the user
• Upload (docx, pdf, or image) – Request a document from the user.

If you create a new roadmap step, you can save it to your library by checking the “Save to Library” box at the bottom of the form.

Whatever step you create, it will appear as the next step in the user’s roadmap and front and center on the homepage when the user logs back in.

• Services – Admins and coaches can enter services provided to a given user (ex: resume review session)
• Outcomes – Admins and coaches can enter employment, education, referral, and disengagement outcomes.
• Notes – Admin and coaches can enter case notes here, which are viewable to all other staff who have permissions to view that given user.

All data entered above will be available in reports downloaded by admin.

Here you can view what recommendations are visible to a given user in their job seeker account. This includes recommended careers, learnings, resources, and jobs. For jobs, you can copy a link to the job application to share directly with the user.

From the Manage Users Table, click the “+” sign under the coach column → choose the coach from the dropdown. They will receive an email notification.

Admins can see profile-level data (skills, saved careers/jobs, roadmap steps, recommendations) and aggregate usage analytics. Passwords are not visible.

Admins cannot reset passwords. Users should click “Forgot Password” on the login screen.

Please request all account deletions directly with your CSM, who will facilitate the deletion process.
