A user assigned to the predefined course creator role in Moodle can [[Adding/editing_a_course|create courses]], [[Assign_teacher_to_course|assign teachers]] and act as an editing teacher. In contrast to an administrator, a course creator cannot modify settings for the entire Moodle site unless they have been specifically assigned permission to these functions. For example, a course creator can assign a teacher to a course and [[Students#Course_enrolment_administration|enrol students]] in that course, but they cannot [[Edit_user_accounts|edit user accounts]] or change site policies for security.  


The course creator role might be assigned to a master teacher, department head or program coordinator.
