Getting Started as an Administrator

Learn how to get started as a console administrator and the tasks required to keep the system running smoothly

Accessing the Console

The first thing is to get access to the management console, you should have been given Admin access and have received the Admin email, which contains the login details and you should already have access to the management console section of the Support Centre (otherwise you won't be able to read this article 😁).

Now that you have logged in to the console take a few minutes to familiarise yourself with the main console functions, then you can look at the tasks required to keep the system running smoothly.

✅ Why not take a quick click-through tour of the Forget Me Not® management console to familiarise yourself

 

Now that you are ready, let's get started .......🙂

Primary Tasks

As a console administrator you have access to the Forget Me Not Console and there are some primary tasks that you need to complete to get your users actively learning.

  • Inviting users into the org (creating accounts)
  • Enrolling users into a topic via a series or a learning pathway

These actions must be done as two distinct steps, however with Forget Me Not®, there are different scenarios that work best for different types of users.

Type of User Method Notes
Standard User / Guest User
  1. Invite the user to the org without sending the welcome email
  2. Enrol the user into their first series and send the welcome email (default)
This method will create the user account, which can be done ahead of the enrolment, and then on the day the enrolment is created the user will be sent their generated password for easy sign in
Admin User / Team Manager
  1. Invite as User to the org and send the welcome email
  2. Then make them an Admin or Team Manager
This will send the generated password directly to the user immediately, and the second email will give them the link to the console so they can login to the management console

 


Inviting Users to the Org

 

For Standard / Guest Users

For Standard / Guest users we recommend not to send the welcome email when creating the account. These users will get the instructions as part of their initial enrolment email, which means they can sign in and start learning straight away.

Take a look at advanced enrolment notifications to understand the different options and see all of the notifications that users get.

There are two ways to invite users into the org:

  • Invite single users - users are invited one at a time. This way is best suited to adding 1-10 users at the same time.
  • Bulk import multiple users - use the bulk import feature to add in large numbers of users from an import file. This way is best suited to 10 or more users

For Admin Users / Team Managers

For an admin user, the first thing to do is invite them into the org as a user which will create an account. During this process there is an option to send welcome invite & password, this should be selected, this will send the welcome email with sign in password 

After the initial account has been created, you will then need to make them an admin / make them a Team Manager so they get access to the console. They will be sent the access link in the admin email /Team Manager email.

This allows both types of users to login to the management console and setup also with the app incase they also get enrolled in a series.

 

✅ Inviting users into the org is done just once, and then they don't need to be invited again

 


Enrol Users into a Series or a Learning Pathway

The following steps are required each time a user is enrolled in a series or a learning pathway:

  1. Enrol users into Series/Pathways - Series are the learning content that can be found in the Series Library, and Pathways are multiple series combined together, users can be enrolled in one or more series or enrolled into a pathway as required.
  2. Monitor onboarding, progress and engagement - Use the series enrolments list, pathway overview or Insights reports to check on user onboarding status and then monitor their ongoing engagement and progress. Some users who have Not Started may require manual follow up reminders to get them started.
  3. Review completed enrolment statistics - Analyse the Mastery Insights to see how learners did, once they have completed the Series. Use the Question Metrics to see how learners answered individual questions. If required, you can also review questions using the Question Previewer to see how they look in the app as this may help when learners ask for help.

 

Use the Support Centre for access to self-help articles or contact support if you need more assistance.
