Sub Account Admins and "Start a New Course" Permission

I am super new as a Canvas admin coming from another LMS. I have created two "Account Roles" (Building Administrator and Tech Admin) at the District root account. The only way to have them have the Start a new course button appears to have users with these account roles at the District root level. Is there a way to have these users not have District root account admin access, but only have sub-account admin access and keep the "Start a New Course" button?

Hi @rmarchionda

Yes, you can give these users account admin access to the sub account level only. We have create different course and account roles for different use. For example, lecturers have teacher admin account role which allow them to search and self enrol into courses in their schools only. For the two account roles that you created, you do not need to give them full admin access to add courses. I will suggest you go through the permissions list and only enable the permissions that they really need. Hope this help.
