District admin: a quick tour

Where everything is in the District Portal: licensing, learning, coaching and managing your district.

Written by Justin Hume

As a district admin, you have the District Portal. It's where you follow licensing, learning and coaching across all your schools, and manage your schools and people.

Who sees it: people with the Network Admin role. That's what Proserva calls a district admin. When you sign in, Proserva opens the District Portal for you.
