Nearpod administrators are a role given to those who help manage lessons, oversee usage, and implementation of Nearpod at school or district with a site license. These users can access additional features to manage Nearpod, set up the school and district libraries, and additional data to track usage of Nearpod across their school or district.
The Nearpod Administrator role is only available within School and District accounts. This is not available for Silver, Gold, or Platinum users. As a Nearpod Administrator, you will have the ability to manage your Nearpod account, view usage, and organize your school/district libraries.
There are two types of administrators:
- School Administrator: Manages an individual School's Nearpod account
- District Administrator: Manages a District-level Nearpod account
Accessing the Admin Dashboard
Log in to your Nearpod account. Once you are in, you will see an option that says "Manage Nearpod" on the grey, left toolbar of your home screen. Clicking this will take you to your Nearpod Admin Dashboard.
