11. Tips – Delegating admin rights Choose IDAM administrators early: –Schools deploying Ultranet in: Term 2 - choose IDAM administrators early in Term 2 Term 3 - choose IDAM administrators by middle of Term 2. –IDAM administrators need to: attend network briefings provided by Ultranet coaches work through online training modules register in IDAM then coordinate student welcome letters, so students can get onto the Ultranet quickly Weigh up the benefits of: –delegating to many to share the load but reduces overall security vs –delegating to few for tighter security but is more work for each. Coaches will contact schools early Term 2 about IDAM administrator training.
