How to add or create an Employee position?

An educational institution may have different career progression paths for teaching staff, non-teaching staff, and other employee categories. For example, teaching staff may progress from being a “Lecturer” to a “Reader” to a “Professor”, while non-teaching staff may progress from being a "Clerk" to an "Accountant". In relevance to your institution, you can create as many employee positions as you like.


At the top of your dashboard, click the module access icon > Administration > Human Resource > Setting > Add Employee Position to open the Add position page.

  1. In the Name field, enter the name of the employee position.

  2. In the Employee Category field, select the employee category the position applies to.
