Members and Roles
Team members have one of two roles that determine what they can do within the team workspace. Admins manage the team, and editors focus on building courses.
| Admin | Editor | |

| Create and edit team courses | Yes | Yes |
| Access team workspace | Yes | Yes |
| View team roster | Yes | Yes |
| Delete team courses | Any course | Only their own |

The person who creates the team is the team owner and the first admin. The owner is shown with an Owner badge in the team roster and cannot be removed from the team. Certain management actions are exclusive to the owner, including purchasing credit packs, changing the seat count, and dissolving the team. Other admins can invite and remove members, change roles, and delete any team course.
Inviting members
Section titled “Inviting members”- Go to Settings > Team
- Enter the email address of the person you want to invite
- Choose a role (admin or editor)
- Click Invite
The invitee receives an email with a link to join your team. Invitations expire after 7 days. You can revoke a pending invitation at any time from the team settings.
Invitees need a Slate account to join. If they don’t have one, they can create a free account when they accept the invitation.
Accepting an invitation
Section titled “Accepting an invitation”When you receive a team invitation:
- Click the join link in the invitation email
- Sign in to your Slate account (or create one)
- You’re automatically added to the team and switched to the team workspace
Managing members
Section titled “Managing members”From Settings > Team, admins can:
- Change a member’s role - use the role selector next to their name
- Remove a member - click the remove button next to their name
When a member is removed, any team courses they created are reassigned to the team owner. The removed member loses access to team courses and returns to their personal workspace.
One team per person
Section titled “One team per person”Each user can belong to one team at a time. To join a different team, you must first leave or be removed from your current team.
