Classlist | Roles and permissions in Brightspace

Be aware that EMC  (Education Modification Cycle) is now managing the Study handbook (Studie gids). Therefore, any changes in Course Coordinator, Lecturer and Course Administrator roles should be requested by sending an email to studiegids@wur.nl.

Every time that a course role change is published in EMC, only the persons that are registered for that course in EMC will be enrolled in the Brightspace course. This means that when you manually enrol participants with one of the above indicated roles in your Brightspace course but these are not registered in EMC for that course, they will be removed from the Brightspace course by the EMC connection.

Teaching Assistant, Student Assistant, Guest Lecturer, Guest Presenter and Viewer roles can be enroled to Brightspace from the course classlist by either the Course Coordinator or the Course Administrator.

This only applies to Regular courses. For non-Regular courses please send an email to education.support@wur.nl if you wish to make any changes in the roles.
