System Admin Role

 

There are several sections of the Admin Menu that help to create and shape the Cyber Train system.  The 'Setup' sections are comprised of System Setup, Security, Codes, Links and Integrations, and Page Builder.  These are areas that are typically set up / configured prior to using the software. Some areas will be a one-time setup and other will have information added to them and/or tweaked as processes change. Much of the Processes section of the Admin menu is only used during the implementation as well to enter and/or update student data.

 

System Setup

This area of the Admin menu is for general setup. It is usually a one time setup and stores more of the technical information and default settings. It also stores the license information and should be updated if the license code needs to change to add more students or move to a different level (i.e. Professional to Enterprise.)

 

Security

This is where Home Page security is set for all Students/Employees and Managers. It is also where true Users (people who need additional security permissions in Cyber Train) are entered and Group security permissions are set.  While everyone who has access to Cyber Train is technically a user, not all people who use Cyber Train will need a User profile.Students and Managers typically have access only to items on the Home Page menu for updating or maintaining records. 'True' Users (i.e. those with a User security login) have access to the menus for Students, Classes, Reports, Admin and Help. Some Users will need both types of access and those logins can be joined together in User security for the purpose of one login. 

 

Codes

There are many drop-down/code tables in Cyber Train and several of them are user-defined meaning one gets to create the codes one wants o see in various areas of the system.  User-defined code tables are maintained here.

 

Links and Integrations

This area of the system is where integration to third party products can be enabled and utilized.  It is also where Custom Links can be enabled to other pages in Cyber Train or to other websites, and/or documents. 

Page Builder

This setup area of the system covers many of the features of Cyber Train.  An organization's daily processes, will determine what is set up here.  As the name suggests, this is where to develop the pages and processes for features like: external class requests, credential requests, tuition assistance, email/letter templates, etc...

 

Processes 

The Processes section of the Admin menu allows an Admin user to mass add, remove or update student information, courses, or code tables in the system.

Cyber Train Icons

List of commonly used icons in Cyber Train during set up:
