What Are Non-Enrollment Groups

Article

Non-Enrollment Groups are sometimes referred to as generic Groups. The purpose of Non-Enrollment Groups is to give Administration the option to include All Users of a type in an Event/Course.

For example, if you include the Student Group in an Event's Group list, then All Students in Leo, whether they are enrolled in that Course or not, will be able to view and access that Event. The same rule applies to the Faculty and Staff Groups as well.

Managing Non-enrollment Groups

Article

To give course or event read-only access to staff members, you must add them to the Non-enrollment Group (this type of group is not associated to an individual course or event, but can be added to a course to give read-only access to members of the group. These groups are often called "Faculty" or "Staff").

The Non-enrollment Group (ex. Faculty, Staff, etc.) to which these users are assigned will need to be added to the course's Default Groups (or to individual events) in order for them to view the course or events. We generally recommend you add these types of users to the non-enrollment Staff group.

Add/Remove Users from Group

Article

There are several ways to add or remove a User from a Group.

Overview of Users, Groups and Roles

Article

Assignment of Students, Staff and Faculty in Leo is built around the concept of Group membership. Security settings for individual Users depend on their associated Group and Role membership settings. Therefore, it is important to understand how Users, Groups and Roles function in the Leo system.

In Leo the components are defined as follows:

• User: A User is an individual who has their own identity to access Leo through the use of a NetID, first and last name identification.  
  • Each User can have a set of Roles associated with their identity, which entitles them to access all resources protected by those Roles.
• Groups: Groups are an important component of Leo because the assignment of Students, Faculty and Staff is built around the concept of Group membership.
  • Security settings for Users also depends on their Group membership settings.
• Roles: Roles define Groups of Users who have similar types of responsibilities and access in Leo.
  • For permission to access areas of Leo, Users are assigned Roles.
  • As an organizational tool, Roles help your institution easily manage the security or access rights for large groups of Users, who share the same tasks or responsibilities.
