Getting started - Admin Portal - Logging on
In your browser enter the address for the admin portal:
You can login to the Admin Portal as one of two types of users:
- ‘Global admin’ - Can add approved users, set up courses and configure the school’s profile. This will be the email address that we have set you up as at the training school and you have received emails to about the simulator product.
- ’Admin’ - Can set up courses. These users are set up by the ‘Global admin’ from within the portal.
The ‘Admins’ are the Radar Instructors that you allow to schedule courses and students to courses etc.
The first time you login (or if you need to reset the password) you will need to enter your email address and then select ‘Create new password’. You will receive and email, follow the process described.
You will then be into the admin portal.
You will see there are three tabs that you can open. The purpose of each are:
- Courses - here you can see your scheduled courses, add new courses, allocate students/instructors to courses and see the number of credits that you have available that can purchase ‘sessions’.
- Admins - here it shows you i) The name of the ‘Global admin’ and their email address ii) Allows you to add additional ‘Admins’.
- Profile - here you can set up details about the school. Some of this functionality is not yet operational - see below for more details. What is essential though is that we have your location correctly logged as when you run courses we want to ensure that there is server capacity scheduled near you. For example if you are based in Australia we can ensure that the Amazon Web Servers in your region of Australia load a copy of the simulator to ensure the best performance.
For more detail on each of the above check out the specific Knowledge Base articles.
