Administration Access isrequired.
Welcome to Ideagen Academy, your eLearning solution for Ideagen products. This guide provides comprehensive information for Administrators to quickly set up and navigate the Academy.
Important: As an administrator, you have the authority to add users, set training plans, view courses, and create content. However, unlike learners, you won't automatically have a training plan. If you wish to take courses and update your training plan, kindly create a separate learner account. Refer to the Users section for more details.

- The functions in the Users area of the dashboard allow you to create and organise users into groups, branches, jobs and audiences.
