Invite learners and staff

Bring people into your organisation with invite links.

Users admin centre with the Student invites tab selected.
Student invites and staff invites are separate tabs, so start with the right audience.

Quick steps

  1. 1Open Users from the sidebar.
  2. 2Choose Student invites for learners or Staff invites for colleagues.
  3. 3Click Create invite link.
  4. 4Set the invite name, role or group, expiry, and any email restrictions.
  5. 5Create, copy, or email the link, then confirm new accounts under All users.

Invite links are fastest when the audience, role, access, and expiry are clear before you send anything. The Users admin centre separates learner onboarding from staff onboarding so the right permissions are applied from the start.

Student invites

Users admin centre showing the Student invites tab and learner invite links.

Use Student invites when you are bringing learners into SimPatient. This tab shows learner invite links, their status, expiry, and how often each link has been used.

Create student invite link form with invite name, group, email allowlist, expiry, session limits, anonymous mode, and access expiry.

Staff invites

Users admin centre showing the Staff invites tab and staff invite links.

Use Staff invites when you are inviting educators, authors, administrators, or other team members. Staff links should always match the role the person needs, not the role they might need later.

Create bulk staff link form with invite name, staff role, expiry, and email allowlist.

Best sequence

  1. Open the correct invite tab for the audience.
  2. Create a new invite link.
  3. Name the invite so other admins know what it is for.
  4. Set group, role, expiry, and restrictions before sharing.
  5. Share the link through a trusted institution channel.
  6. Confirm successful activation in All users.
If a link was sent to an open channel or the wrong audience, disable it and create a fresh invite with tighter restrictions.
