# Adding Group Leaders

## You can add as many Group Leaders as you'd like without taking up any paid seats

Group Leaders are instructors, TAs, Educational Specialists, Contact Teachers, or parents who share access to a Group. Adding an additional Group Leader allows another adult to view student progress, grade work, and access instructor-only materials for that Group

### **When to Add a Group Leader**

- Two parents are jointly monitoring a student’s work
- Multiple teachers share the same class or section
- A co-op wants both the main teacher and an assistant or parent to have access
- NOTE: Group Leaders can see all student work in the the group; if you would like to add a Group Leader but limit which students they can oversee, it's possible in limited contexts; email support@nomadicprofessor.com for help

### **How to Add a Group Leader**

1. Go to the **My Groups** page
2. Scroll down to the **Group Leaders** section (below the Enrolled Users table)
3. Click **Add Group Leader**
4. Search for the person’s email address in the search box
5. If their account exists, select it and confirm to add them as a Group Leader
6. If their account does not exist, they will receive an invitation to join your Group

### Removing a Group Leader

1. In the **Group Leaders** section, find the leader you wish to remove
2. Click the remove or delete icon next to their name
3. Confirm the removal

After removal, that person will no longer be able to access student progress, grades, or instructor-only materials for this Group
