There are 6 different user roles available in Gele:
Most of the roles are ‘course specific’ – roles that a user has in the context of specific courses, which means that he can have different roles in different courses (e.g. Student in course ‘A’, Coach in course ‘B,’ and Course Administrator in course ‘C’). It’s different from the Superadmin role, which is a system-wide role and can’t be shared with the role of Student, Coach or Senior Coach. See roles definitions below:

As Superadmin you also get Course Administrator and Course Coordinator access rights. This role can’t be shared with the role of Student, Coach and Senior Coach. However it can be shared with the role of Course Administrator and Course Coordinator. Only a Superadmin can create new Superadmin users.
