We’ve introduced Collaborators — a new way to make working together on content and exams simpler and more flexible.
When an educator creates content or an exam, they automatically become the owner and have full control over it, and now can add their team for the same level of ownership when the add them as Collaborators

With Collaborators, they can now:
- Add other educators to work on that content
- Share control without needing admin-level permissions
- Collaborate on specific items without affecting wider access
Collaborators are treated as equals on that item, meaning they can manage and edit it just like the owner.
- No more over-permissioning — keep global permissions simple and controlled
- Faster collaboration — no need to create new groups or update roles
- More flexibility — give access exactly where it’s needed
Collaborators are currently available on:
- Exams
- Library content (Quizzes, notes, etc)
Use case: A team of educators each create their own content, but occasionally need help reviewing or editing.
