BuildOps Academy Group Manager

As a Group Manager in Academy, you are usually the primary contact or training lead for your company. Customers become Group Managers when their BuildOps CSM or IM assigns their user as a Group Manager for their company’s learner group. You can also reach out to BuildOps Support team if you are interested to assign yourself or someone from your team as Group Manager.

What a Group Manager Can Do

  • View team analytics
    From the Academy home screen, click Analytics to see your group’s learners and their progress across courses and modules.

  • Review individual learner progress
    Drill into specific learners from Analytics to see which modules they’ve completed and where they may be stuck.


Troubleshooting & FAQs

Q: I didn’t receive my verification or login email

A: If you’re expecting an email to complete your login or account setup and don’t see it:

  • Check your Spam/Junk folder.

  • Confirm you used the correct work email (no typos).

  • If you still don’t see the email after a few minutes, contact BuildOps Support via chat or email and we’ll help you complete your setup.

Q: I see a “Network error” when trying to watch videos

A: If you can log in to Academy but receive a “Network error” when playing videos:

  • This usually means the connection is being blocked by a company firewall, VPN, or content filter. Try connecting from a different network (for example, mobile hotspot) to confirm.

Q: My course isn’t showing 100% complete

A: If you’ve finished the videos but your course still doesn’t show 100% completion or won’t mark as complete:

  • Make sure you’ve:

    • Watched every video in the course and marked as complete.

    • Opened any linked articles or practice steps

    • Completed all quizzes or checkpoints

  • If needed, click through each section again and confirm there are no items left partially completed.

If the status still looks incorrect, contact Support and let us know the:

  • Course name

  • Your email address

  • Which steps you’ve already completed
