In order to use Albert's premium question banks and full data reporting tools with students, teachers will need to be approved for your school's Albert license. To ensure that the correct teachers have full access your school's license, administrators can easily refresh your staff list to remove old teachers and import new teachers in one upload.
Invite New Teachers to your Albert License
Follow these steps to add teachers to a renewed license without removing any teachers’ access. You can also follow these steps if your school is licensed on Albert for the first time to invite all of your teachers.
Click on the Admin tab at the top of the site. If you are approved at multiple schools, select a school from the next page.
Click the Manage Staff Licenses sub-tab.
Click the Update Licensed Teachers button.
Select Add Teachers.
Type or paste the teacher email addresses that you wish to add to your Albert license.
Click Add and Continue.
Review the list of teachers who will be newly approved or invited.
Once finished, click Send Teacher Invites.
Note: Teachers you've newly invited to Albert who do not already have Albert accounts will appear on the “Sent Invites” list of the Manage Staff Licenses sub-tab until they accept your Albert invitation.
Refresh the Entire Staff List
Follow these steps to upload a list of teachers to quickly invite new teachers and reject teachers who should no longer have access to your Albert license.
Click on the Admin tab at the top of the site. If you are approved at multiple schools, select a school from the next page.
Navigate to the Manage Staff Licenses sub-tab.
Click the Update Licensed Teachers button.
Select Add & Remove Teachers.
Type or paste the teacher email addresses for all teachers you wish to have Albert license access, including any teachers that already have Albert license access.
Click Add and Continue.
Review the list of teachers who will be invited and those who will be removed.
Note: Any teacher with an existing Albert account who was not on your newly inputted list of emails will have their Albert license access removed.
Once you've reviewed the list of teachers to be invited and removed, click Invite and Update Licensed Teachers.
Note: The newly invited teachers will appear on the “Sent Invites” list of the Manage Staff Licenses sub-tab until they accept your invitation. Teachers who were removed from your license will appear on the No License Access list.
Individually Approving or Rejecting Teachers
If teachers are not invited to their school's Albert license, they can still request access, but it must be approved by an Albert admin. Similarly, teachers who should not be using the platform need to be rejected by an Albert admin.
To approve or reject teachers, follow the steps below:
Select the Admin tab; from there, click Manage Staff Licenses, and you will be brought to the Review Needed section.
To approve or reject a teacher, click the corresponding button for that teacher.
If you click Approve, the teacher will be moved to the Full License Access sub-tab and can immediately begin using Premium Question Banks and Adaptive Practice in their classroom.
If you click Reject, you will be asked to verify your decision. Those users will then be relocated to the 'No License Access' tab and will not be granted Question Bank access. They will have access to Adaptive Practice.
To accept teachers who were previously rejected:
Select the Admin tab, then the Manage Staff Licenses sub-tab, and the No License Access list.
Identify the teacher(s) whose status you wish to modify.
Click the Approve button that corresponds to the appropriate individual.
Manage Pending School Personnel Notification Emails
School admins can opt in or out of receiving the Pending School Personnel notification email.
To update your email notification settings:
Navigate to the Admin Dashboard.
Click on the Manage Staff Licenses tab.
Click on the Full License Access tab.
Edit your email settings using the notification button 🔔 in the top right.
