Delegated Access in Sakai for Academic Administrators

What is Delegated Access?

Delegated Access provides academic administrators with quick and easy access to Sakai sites for all courses they oversee. With a few clicks, program directors, chairs, and deans can access any site within their areas of supervision.

  • For curriculum courses, sites are available for 2018SU forward.
  • For Adult Ed/BSP courses, sites are available for 2018CE2 forward.
  • For continuing education courses, access is very limited at this time, due to the way courses are coded in Colleague.

Delegated Access provides “supervisor” access, which lets you do anything an instructor can do – e.g. post announcements, send emails, add/edit site content, check grades, view assignments, and so on.

How do you get started?

Before you can use Delegated Access, you must make a one-time request to Sakai support staff, and we will assign your Sakai account to the area(s) you supervise.

TO REQUEST DELEGATED ACCESS

NOTE: You need to request access just one time to get access to all sites from 2018SU forward. You do not have to request access each semester!

How do you use Delegated Access?

Once we've received your request and set up your access, a new Delegated Access button will appear on the menu on your Sakai HOME page (where you land after you log in).

  • Click the Delegated Access button to search for and access sites.
  • See the Delegated Access Handout (pdf) for detailed instructions.
  • Note: When you go into a course site using Delegated access, you can not see any posts in Forums. If you need to view Forum posts in a course site, contact sakaihelp@durhamtech.edu. We'll add your userid as a supervisor to the course site.

Need access to Sakai courses created before Summer 2018?

If you need supervisor access to a Sakai site created BEFORE Summer 2018, send the following information to sakaihelp@durhamtech.edu:

  • Semester (such as 2018SP)
  • Course information (such as ACA 122 190)
