Staff such as Curriculum Managers or System Administrators use the Standards Setup tools to manage the alignment of standards, credit groups and grading tasks to schools and courses in the district. The Standards Bank that contains all the standards a district uses is maintained in this area.
To learn how to use these tools, see the articles in the Standards Setup category.

Suggested User Groups
Delete rights should be assigned to only one or very few people. Typically, users of these tools have already been assigned one or more Product Security Roles that grant administrative-level access; therefore, a user group assignment is not necessary.
If your district's needs are different, you may choose to create a group that meets those needs.
See User Groups and Suggested Roles for more information.
