User Roles and Permissions defined

User roles and permissions control what learners, managers, and administrators can access in Go1.

Updated this week

Learning and development needs vary across roles and departments within an organization. The Go1 platform includes several user role types and associated permissions to ensure you see what you need to focus on your learning objectives.

Primary User Roles

These are the main roles users can have in your organization: Learner, Manager and Administrator.

Learning is for everyone, so no matter the role for your organization, all users within the Go1 Platform hold the Learner role. Having a role of Manager or Administrator provides additional permissions.
