An employer account must be setup in  order to be able to login to the employer portal to view their students.

First, make sure you have the permissions under the 'Employer Administration' heading. At the very least you will need the View, Add, and Email permissions to get started.

After that's done the employer link will appear in the admin sidebar. Click on it to navigate to the employer management screen.

Adding an employer can be done by clicking on the 'Add New Employer' Button at the top left of the screen. Details like Staff Name, Staff Email, Position and Password are straight forward, just add the employer's details and pick a password for them. The Position is what they do at the organisation for example 'Manager'.

Organisation, is the business name the employer is from. You can select it from the dropdown list. If the organisation does not appear in the list then you will have to add the organisation. Please refer to the How to add an organisation guide for details on how to add that.

Employer Banner ID is a little more difficult to find but it is located on the student's personal details screen under the 'Employer Details' section. 

Finally there are two checkboxes that can be ticked. The 'Is this employer a host employer?' checkbox will mean that the employer will only get access to students that have the 'Staff Email' listed in the host employer email or host employer alt email for the student. This way the employer can be limited to only student's that are at their location. If this is not then the employer account will have access to all students that are linked to the employer banner id. 

The next checkbox, 'Send account details?' means when it's ticked and the employer is created, an automated email will be sent to the employer with login instructions.

Once the details are in as needed then you can click the 'Ok' button and the employer will be added.
