# Adding Admins and Coordinators

Canonical page: https://carecard.ca/knowledge/care-card-guide/institution-admin/adding-admins-and-coordinators
Language: en-CA









Anywhere in your institution, you can add three kinds of people:

* **Institution Admin** — Another admin for your institution. A Campus Admin
  cannot do this; you can.
* **Campus Admin** — An admin for one campus.
* **Program Coordinator** — A coordinator for one program.

## Where the Actions Live [#where-the-actions-live]

Every action starts from the actions menu (<Dots />) on the **Institution**
page:

* **Add Admin** — On the institution's <Dots /> menu. This invites an
  **Institution Admin**.
* **Add Campus Admin** — On a campus's <Dots /> menu. This invites a **Campus
  Admin** to that campus.
* **Add Coordinator** — On a program's <Dots /> menu. This invites a **Program
  Coordinator** to that program.

## Send the Invitation [#send-the-invitation]

Open the <Dots /> menu and select **Add Admin**, **Add Campus Admin**, or **Add
Coordinator**. The **Invite User to Role** dialog opens.

Search for the person by name or email, write a **Reason**, then select **Send
Invitation**.

## When an Expiry Is Required [#when-an-expiry-is-required]

A **Campus Admin** or a **Program Coordinator** is a lower role than yours, so
no expiry is needed — the invitation goes out right away.

Another **Institution Admin** is the same role as yours. That assignment is
temporary, so a **Role Assignment Expiry** step appears after **Send
Invitation** — pick a **Role expiry date** (up to one year out) and select
**Continue**. The role ends automatically on that date.

## After You Send It [#after-you-send-it]

The invitation does not turn on the role on its own. The person finds it under
**Pending Role Invitations** on their **Home** dashboard. The role turns on only
after they accept it.
