Accudemia: How do I give tutors the permissions to sign students in and out of a Center?
Introduction
Administrators in Accudemia can give tutors the permission to sign students in and out of a Center. For example, if a student walks into a physical Center and seeks out help without signing in at the kiosk, a tutor could sign this student in to keep a log of it. Alternatively, students who were emailed an online meeting link bypass Accudemia entirely, so the tutor could sign these students in to keep accurate logs. Also, students won't always sign themselves out of a Center once they've received help. If there's a buildup of student profiles who aren't logging out, it can cause an error. Tutors with the right permissions can sign these students out to avoid this problem. This article will explain how to give these permissions to individual tutors, as well as all tutors working for the college.
