User role level (Learner)
Admin role level → Admins have full access to all or some areas of the platform.
Instructor role level → Instructors have access to specific platform areas but limit the displayed data only to those related to the selected courses.

Only the LearnWorlds admin account can log in to the LearnWorlds school from the account page account.learnworlds.com/login; all the other user roles can log in from the sign-in form of your school.With Multiple Schools, we offer an additional layer of access for admins in an organization:
Organization owner: The admin who creates the first school of the organization (a cluster of schools).
- Creates/Clones/Deletes Schools
- Creates Super Admins (with specific permissions)
Super admin: A user created by the organization owner with specific permissions within the organization and at least one assigned school. A Super Admin is simultaneously the LearnWorlds Admin of the individual schools that are assigned to them, meaning they have full authoring access to their assigned schools.
- Sees their assigned schools in the Multiple Schools Dashboard.
- Creates/Clones/Deletes schools (if they have the specific permissions)
