You can use the Admin Dashboard to invite other tutors to your license and provide them with access. You should not invite students here, only other tutors.

Once in the Admin Dashboard, you can see who has already been given access by looking at the Approved tab. The Rejected tab shows tutors that are associated with your company but do not have access to your license at this time. The Pending Approval tab shows you tutors that are waiting to be approved by an admin. The Pending Invitations tab shows those that have been invited but haven’t created an account.


Step 1a: 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.

  1. 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)

  2. Navigate to the Manage Staff sub-tab.

  3. Click the Update Teacher List button

  4. Select Add teachers

  5. Enter or copy-paste the email addresses that you wish to add to your Albert license

  6. Click Add and Continue

  7. Review the list of teachers who will be newly approved or invited

  8. Once finished, click Send Teacher Invites

Note: New teachers will appear on the Pending Invitations list of the Manage Staff sub-tab until they accept your invitation.

Step 1b: Refresh your Entire Staff List

For renewing schools, 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 license.

  1. 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)

  2. Navigate to the Manage Staff sub-tab.

  3. Click the Update Teacher List button

  4. Select Refresh Staff List

  5. Enter or copy-paste the email addresses that you wish to add to your Albert license

  6. Click Add and Continue

  7. Review the list of teachers who will be invited and the list of teachers who will be removed

  8. Once finished, click Invite and Update Teacher List

Note: The newly invited teachers will appear on the Pending Invitations list of the Manage Staff sub-tab until they accept your invitation. Teachers who were removed from your license will appear on the Rejected list.

Step 2: Ensure tutors have created classrooms & invited students

You can use the Admin Dashboard to check on other tutors' progress and support them if they need help.

  • First, ensure there are no pending tutors waiting to be approved. You can always view pending tutor accounts in the tab labeled Pending Approval. Tutors can't create classrooms, invite students, or create assignments on Albert until you approve them!

  • For tutors that have yet to accept their Albert invitation, re-invite them to create an account by clicking the Resend button located in the Pending Invitations column of the Manage Staff sub-tab.

  • Use the Admin dashboard to review which tutors have created classes and enrolled students. You can view this information by clicking into the Usage Reports sub-tab.:

Ongoing: Regularly review usage

The Admin tab gives you insight into your company’s usage at a high level and individual students.

Here are some best practices when reviewing usage:

  • Set concrete goals for each month, quarter, or semester around adoption. For example, by X date, all tutors have created a class, invited students, and made at least one assignment.

  • Create a schedule and block off time to review the Admin dashboard. We recommend every 2-4 weeks.

Troubleshooting:

If your tutors aren't receiving your emails, add the following domains to your company’s allow-list. We send invite and confirmation emails from these domains.

Required:

If you are not seeing the “Admin” tab at the top of your page or need to provide admin access to another tutor, please contact us at hello@albert.io, so we can grant you administrator privileges for your company.
