You can grant partial, full-course, or section access to another instructor. You might want to do this to share assignments between similar courses, or to allow a TA to grade essay answers or manage student requests.
Note If you manage your K-12 course through NGLSync,
this feature is available from your NGLSync instructor dashboard
and disabled in your WebAssign course.
