Most of the features for administrators (that is, the people who will create the necessary courses, learning plans, and others) are located under the main Learning Setup feature in the Features tab of System Admin > Roles. Several of the features described in the table below aren’t visible in the feature tree, but are instead enabled automatically by selecting the following features:
- Instructor
- Learning Administrator
- Super Administrator
Note: Users assigned either the Instructor or Learning Administrator features are defined as power users in Dayforce.
Important: It isn’t recommended to assign a user all three learning roles, because unexpected errors might occur.
Additionally, depending on your organization's configuration and division of responsibilities, administrators might also need access to functionality in the People, Org Setup, and HR Admin features.
Learning Setup contains several sub-features, which are listed in the following table. Sub-features listed with one asterisk (*) are automatically enabled for roles assigned the Instructor or Learning Administrator feature (under Learning Role > Power User Roles); sub-features with two asterisks (**) are automatically enabled for roles assigned the Super Administrator feature (under Learning Roles).
