Come swim with us at Grouper School on Sept. 27-30. Grouper simplifies access management by letting you use the same group or role in many places in your organization. It automates changes to access privileges as a person’s role changes. It empowers the right people to manage access, taking central IT out of the loop. This virtual class spans four half days. Synchronous sessions will be scheduled during the week of class from 12:00 – 5:00 p.m. ET.

Grouper is used in the InCommon Trusted Access Platform architecture to manage attribute, role-based authorization services and group memberships in an auditable way based on institutional data from systems of record.
