# 🧑‍💼Admin role

When you create your own Learning Space for teaching with Pathwright, you're automatically set as the owner and first admin. You can invite additional administrators anytime. The admin role provides full access to the Learning Space, including the ability to view and edit all Paths, access the Learning Space Community or member list, and access all Learning Space settings including billing settings.

## What is as Administrator?

**Administrators** have full access to the Pathwright Learning Space where they hold the admin role. Admins are the only members of a Learning Space that can view and interact with the Learning Space Dashboard, Settings, and Community.

To personally teach a Cohort, the admin should [enroll himself in that Cohort as a teacher.](../inviting-people-to-a-course/make-yourself-the-teacher-of-an-existing-course.help.md) This ensures that they receive notifications from the Path and they are displayed to learners as the teacher.

💡 **Tip:** Your Learning Space will need to be activated on one of our [pricing plans](https://grow.pathwright.com/pricing/plan/) before you can invite others to join. Admins count as staff members on your billing plan. [Learn more here.](../pathwright-member-overview/pathwright-member-roles.help.md)
