# Coordinator permissions

**Coordinators** place content orders for the Course assignments of others **based on permissions** granted to them by their Institution.

## Permission configuration <a href="#coordinatorpermissions-permissionconfiguration" id="coordinatorpermissions-permissionconfiguration"></a>

Permissions may be configured based on data provided by your institution about Sections. For each Section taught at your institution, your Institution will or may provide the following data:

* A Course subject (e.g., "BIO" in "BIO 101"; *required*)
* A Course level (e.g., "Undergraduate," "Graduate," "Business"; *required*)
* A Department, College, or School affiliation (e.g., "The Department of Sociology," "College of Engineering"; *required*)
* A Campus affiliation (e.g., "IU Bloomington"; *optional*)

All four values associated with a Section may be used to configure **Coordinator** permissions.

## Example permissions <a href="#coordinatorpermissions-examplepermissions" id="coordinatorpermissions-examplepermissions"></a>

The following are example permissions configured for a Coordinator:

* The **Coordinator** may place orders for any course at their Institution with a "BIO" course subject.
* The **Coordinator** may place orders for all course sections offered by "The Department of Sociology" at a particular regional campus.

**Coordinators** may be granted more than one permission. For example, a particular Coordinator may be permitted to submit content orders for the College of Engineering at one regional campus *and* the College of Fine Arts at another.

**Coordinator** permissions are granted by your Institution's IT organization, usually in advance of a particular Ordering period.
