What are groups and how do I create them? 

The Country Navigator platform lets you create groups of users, helping teams or cohorts enjoy a learning experience tailored to their shared goals.

When you create a group, you can assign learning paths to all its members, ensuring those paths are visible and prioritized across the platform. Groups also enable you to manage how users are visible to one another on the platform.

How to Create a Group

Follow these simple steps to create a group on the platform:

Step 1: Go to the Admin Page

Log in to the Country Navigator platform.

Click your user icon in the top right corner of the home page, then select Admin from the drop-down menu.

Step 2: Create Your Group

On the Admin page, open the Groups tab and click Add Group.

A pop-up window will appear. Just give your group a name and click Create Group.

Your new group will now appear in the list under the Groups tab.

Step 3: Add Users to Your Group

Now that you’ve created your group, it’s time to add users.

1. Go to the Users tab on the Admin page to view your full list of users.

2. Find the person you’d like to add, either by browsing or using the search bar.

3. Click Add to Group next to their name.

4. In the pop-up window, choose the group you want to place them in, and then select Save.

You can check that the user has been added successfully by returning to the Groups tab and looking at the User Count column.

Please Note: A user can currently belong to only one group at a time.

If you don’t see any users listed yet, it may be because you haven’t created your users or sent their login details. Take a look at our guide to creating users for help.

Adding Multiple Users at Once

Need to add a selection of users to the same group quickly? No problem! When uploading users to your account, you can use the Upload CSV option.

During the upload, simply select a group in the Groups field, and all users from that CSV will automatically be added to it.

For more details, see our guide to creating users on the admin page.

Please Note: If you want to update multiple users’ allocated groups at once, you can use the “Add Users” CSV upload option. This feature functions both as a bulk upload and a bulk editing tool. To move several users from one group to another, simply upload the CSV file and update the Groups field accordingly. Changing a user’s group through this method will not duplicate the user.

How to Assign Learning Paths to a Group

Once your group is set up and your users are added, you’re ready to assign learning paths!

Assigning a path ensures all group members see it as a learning priority on their Home and Learn pages.

You can find a step-by-step guide on how to assign a learning path to a group here.

Please Note: If you have assigned learning paths to your organization, these will not automatically be visible to a group. You must assign the learning paths to a group specifically.

Groups and User Visibility

The Groups tab can also be used to manage the visibility of users to one another in the platform. This determines whether users will be able to add other users as connections, view their Wordprism™ profiles, or add each other to a team.

On the Groups tab, you will see a Visibility column.

You can edit the visibility of the group’s users by selecting the Edit button, and amending the group’s visibility option within the pop-up window.

The options for visibility are:

1. All: Users in this group can see any users whose group has the same visibility, plus any who are not in a group but are from the same organization.

2. Group: Users in this group can only see users in the same group.

3. None: Users in this group cannot see one another, nor any other users.
