Conference/Union Level Roles

When adding a new role to conference personnel, it is important to understand the following:

  1. An individual is able to add roles to people at an equal or lower level of their own role-type.
    • “Conference” role user can NOT add a conference superintendent or associate superintendent role to an individual.
    • “Conference” level user CAN add a conference or lower role to individuals.
    • “Conference Associate Superintendent” role is managed by the “Conference Superintendent” user.
  2. Contact your union to add and/or end roles for conference superintendents. This is not able to be done by anyone at the Conference – as it is the highest role at the Conference level.
  3. The Union is the managing level for the following roles:
    • Conference Superintendent
    • Conference+
    • Higher Ed Professor
    • Self-Supporting School Teacher (approved)
