When the "Can Manage All Tools" permission is assigned to users, they can make an assignment out of any Learning Tool available in eLearning. This permission should be given to all faculty users.

When the "Can Add Tools" permission is assigned to users, they can add or edit a Learning Tool in eLearning because it enables the display of the Add and Edit buttons. It is recommended that this permission be reserved for the administrator role and not given to faculty users.
