Administration
Administration in RM Compare | Hub provides the controls needed to manage a secure, well-governed assessment environment across your organisation, licence centres and users.
Use Administration to manage who can access RM Compare, what they are allowed to do, how licence centres are structured, and how shared standards are governed across your system.
What administration supports
RM Compare | 🧭Hub can support a range of organisational models, from a single school or department to a multi-centre organisation, awarding body, university, professional body or national assessment programme.
Administration helps you to:
- Set up and manage licence centres
- Manage users, roles and permissions
- Control access to shared standards, ranks and rulers
- Maintain appropriate governance across multiple organisations or teams
- Support secure, controlled use of assessment data and content
- Configure the system so that the right people can create, share, use and administer standards
Administration in the Hub ecosystem
Hub is the governance layer within the RM Compare ecosystem.
| RM Compare module | Primary role |
|---|---|
| RM Compare | 💻Studio | Create standards by comparatively judging work and producing ranks |
| RM Compare | 🧭Hub | Govern, maintain and share standards across organisations and licence centres |
| RM Compare | 📳Live | Use rulers to place new work against trusted shared standards on demand |
Administration ensures that the people who create, manage and use standards have the correct level of access at each stage.
For example, an organisation may allow subject experts to create a rank in Studio, permit Hub administrators to publish and share a ruler, and enable teachers or assessors to use that ruler in Live without giving every user access to all administrative or source-material functions.
Administration areas
The Administration section is divided into two areas:
| Area | Use it to |
|---|---|
| System Admin | Manage system-level settings, users, permissions and governance controls |
| Licence Centre Admin | Manage individual licence centres, including their users, roles and local activity |
Roles and permissions
Roles and permissions help ensure that users can complete their work without gaining unnecessary access to assessment content, standards or administration functions.
A typical model may include the following responsibilities:
| Role | Typical responsibility |
|---|---|
| System Administrator | Configures the overall environment and manages system-wide governance |
| Licence Centre Administrator | Manages local users, access and activity within a licence centre |
| Assessment Lead | Coordinates assessment activity and supports the appropriate use of standards |
| Judge or Assessor | Makes comparative judgements in Studio or applies a ruler in Live |
| Teacher or Practitioner | Uses shared standards for benchmarking, calibration or professional learning |
| Viewer or Reviewer | Accesses approved reports, standards or reference materials without changing configuration |
The exact roles available will depend on your RM Compare configuration and the permissions assigned to your account.
