Self-registration
PASCO Portal uses self-registration with access codes to provide users with an easy and secure way into the platform. The access codes allow users to register themselves to specific organizations, with the user roles they require. Users may register themselves as district admins, school or college admins, and school or college instructors. Mapping access codes to specific roles allows the system to automatically assign users the appropriate permissions and access levels.
