Understanding User Roles and Permissions

Each user in TIDE has a role, such as a district-level user or a test administrator-level user. Each role has an associated list of permissions to access certain features within TIDE.

For a complete list of user roles and access levels, User Role Permissions for Secure Online Systems available in the Resources section of the VT Comprehensive Assessment Program Portal, http://vt.portal.cambiumast.com/.

There is a hierarchy to user roles. Generally, user roles that are higher in the hierarchy have access to more sensitive or critical data and tasks within TIDE.
