SayPro Description: Customizing User Permissions in the SayPro CMS

As part of SayPro’s commitment to streamlined content governance and secure publishing processes, this training component focuses on equipping participants with a deep understanding of user permissions within the SayPro Content Management System (CMS).

Training Focus:

Participants will be trained on the full range of permissions associated with each user role in the CMS—from basic content creation rights to advanced administrative privileges. They will learn not only how these permissions impact the workflow, but also how to customize and apply them to meet SayPro’s organizational structure and compliance needs.
