How to add users to groups

In this article, we’ll explain how to organise your learners into groups in Nimble LMS 2. Groups are just for organisation. Unlike the Teams feature, which restricts the data that admins can access within the LMS, groups do not apply any security settings or data restrictions – they’re simply a flexible way to organise your users for easier management, enrolment and reporting.

Top tips before you begin

• Groups vs Teams: Remember that groups are purely for organisation. If you need to restrict what courses or user data specific administrators can see, you should use Teams instead.
• Creating on the fly: You don’t need to set up all your groups beforehand; you can create new groups while adding users to them.

How to add users to groups

To add users to a group, follow these steps:

1. Log into Nimble LMS 2.
2. From the menu on the left of the screen, select Users.

3. Use the filters or search bar to locate the user(s) you would like to add to a group.
4. Tick the checkbox(es) next to the relevant users.

5. From the Options dropdown menu, select Groups.

6. Place a tick next to the group(s) you would like to add the users to.

7. Alternatively, if you need to create a new group because it does not exist yet:
   • Select New group.

• Enter a name for the group.
• Select the tick icon to save your new group name.

8. When you are happy with your changes, select the Save button.
