What is a Subteam?
How to create, edit, and assign Users to a Subteam
Table of Contents
Grouping Users makes it easier to assign Courses and Learning Paths to multiple people at once. In BrainStation, you can create a Subteam to assign Courses and run reports for that group. This grouping feature is often used for departments, locations, or permission-based groups inside an organization.
Please Note:
Both Team Leaders and Team Assistants can access the Team Dashboard within BrainStation, but only a Team Leader can create, edit, and assign Users to a Subteam.
