Adding Employees

In Teachworks, Employees are classified as teachers or staff.  You can select which type each employee is in the "Employee Type" field on the employee's profile.

Teachers only have access to teaching functions and only have access to records related to their own teaching (ie. Their own lessons, students, etc.). 

Staff accounts are for employees that perform administration and need access to non-teaching functions in Teachworks. Staff accounts can also be used for teaching by enabling the "Include as Teacher" option on the employee profile.
