==Notes==
Since the inspector role has been given the moodle/course:view capability, inspectors will
* see ''all'' courses in their "My Courses" list, in "My Moodle", etc.,
* see events from ''all'' courses in their personal calendar,
* be shown to teachers as a course participant in any case (though marked as "hidden assignment" if set up this way).

The role of Inspector may be used to provide external inspectors with permission to view all courses (without being required to enrol).

Role set-up

  1. Access Administration > Users > Permissions > Define roles
  2. Click the button "Add a new role"
  3. Give the role a name e.g. Inspector, short name and description
  4. Change the capability moodle/course:view to allow
  5. Click the button "Add a new role"

Role assignment

  1. Access Administration > Users > Permissions > Assign system roles
  2. Choose the role to assign
  3. Select a user in the potential users list, and use the left-facing arrow button to add it to the existing users list
  4. Optional (from 1.8 onwards): To hide an Inspector role user, click the "Hidden assignments" check box before adding them to the existing users list. (If this is not done, then the user is listed as a course participant.)

Notes

Since the inspector role has been given the moodle/course:view capability, inspectors will

  • see all courses in their "My Courses" list, in "My Moodle", etc.,
  • see events from all courses in their personal calendar,
  • be shown to teachers as a course participant in any case (though marked as "hidden assignment" if set up this way).
