Organizational Units help you structure your organization inside LearnCove. You can use them to organize users, assign managers, and distribute groups or courses across different parts of your company.
You can create up to seven hierarchical layers, allowing you to mirror your real organizational structure (for example: Department → Team → Region → Role).
Step 1: Navigate to Organizational Units
To create a new Organizational Unit:
Click Settings from the navigation menu
Select Workspace settings
Click Organizational Units
This will open the Organizational Units overview where you can create and manage your structure.
Step 2: Create a new Organizational Unit
Inside the Organizational Units page:
Click + Add organizational unit
Enter the name of the unit
(Optional) Select one or more Organizational unit managers
Managers can help manage users and content inside that unit.
When creating a unit you can also enable Lock layer.
If a layer is locked:
It becomes hidden from other managers
Other managers cannot edit or view the unit
This can be useful when restricting access to sensitive parts of your organization.
Once you hit save to create the Organizational unit you are given the option to go back to the overview or add Users.
Step 3: Add users to the unit
To add users:
Click Add users
Select the users you want to include
Click Add users
All users in your account are available for selection.
The selected users will now belong to that Organizational Unit.
Step 4: Create sub-layers (additional levels)
If you want add another layer below an Organizational Unit:
Locate the unit in the list
Click the three dots (•••) on the right side
Select Add layer
You can repeat this process to build your structure.
Each Organizational Unit can have up to seven layers.
What you can do within each layer
At every level of the Organizational Unit structure you can:
Add users
Assign groups and courses
Create additional layers
Edit or delete the layer
This allows you to assign training and manage users at very specific levels of your organization.
