Organization Roles

(Note to self: use "Participant, Assistant, Organization Builder, Grader, and Organization Leader/Do NOT use "Facilitator, Leader, Guest, or Notetaker)


Organization roles control access to content and tools within an organization. Each user in an organization is assigned an organization role. You set organization roles when enrolling users in organizations. You can also edit organization roles after enrollment.

  • Organization Leader: This is the new role that gives Organization Leaders control over Ultra Enrollments. Avoid the older “Leader” role.
  • Assistant: This role gives the user full access to edit content and interact with the Grade Center, but cannot add or remove other users. If the organization is unavailable to students, an Assistant can still access the organization. 
  • Organization Builder: This role gives the user access to create and edit the content but NOT to see or interact with the Grade Center. If the organization is unavailable to students, an Organization Builder can still access the organization. 
  • Grader: This role allows the user to interact with the Grade Center but NOT to add, edit, or delete content. If an organization is unavailable to participants, the organization appears in the organization list for a user with the role of Grader. However, the grader can't enter the organization until the organization is available.
  • Participant: This is the standard role for users to consume information and make submissions in an organization.


Although the roles "Leader," "Facilitator," "Notetaker," and "Guest" may appear in the drop down menu of user roles, avoid these roles as they do not function properly within SU Organizations.
