STEP 1: Create EfL Users (Web Console)
Only Assessment Users and Assessment Managers can create PLGs and access Assessment Books.
A new PLG and changes to a PLG need to be approved by an Assessment Manager.
So, in order to start building a PLG or if you want to be able to access an Assessment Book you will first need to create an Assessment User and an Assessment Manager (this can be the same person if required).
Here are the steps to create Assessment Managers and Users:
1. On a computer, login to the Web Console.
2. Hover over Admin (top right) and Click User Manager.
