# Instructor tools and navigation

Instructors and course content creators can navigate the learning management side of the EdEHR with either the sidebar navigation or the application banner's menu button. Both present the same top level options.

# Course designer mode

Instructors can self promote themselves to the role of "content creator". Just check the Course designer mode checkbox in the sidebar navigation of the banner menu.

With this role, users can create and manage Learning Objects and Case Studies.
