# User Groups

**User Groups** are different from **User Roles**. **User Roles** are used to restricting access to the application by specific permissions, whereas **User Groups** are used to classify the users. To manage user groups, login to the admin account and select `Manage Users > User Groups` from the sidebar menu.

{% hint style="success" %}
User groups are useful when you schedule a test and assign it to only specific users.
{% endhint %}

Some examples of User Groups are:

* Grade 11
* Grade 12
* Graduates
* Post Graduates
* Summer Batch
* Kindergarten
* Scholars
* Short Term
* Long Term

The above list is just for reference. You can create **Unlimited User Groups** of yours.

### Private vs. Public Group

You can also define a User Group as Public or Private.

{% hint style="info" %}

* **Private Group** - Only the admin can add users to the private group
* **Public Group** - Anyone can join the public group (This feature will be available in the next version release)
  {% endhint %}

### Add a User to Multiple User Groups

1. Log in to the admin account and select `Manage Users > Users` from the sidebar menu. 
2. Click on the edit icon of a user, then choose User Groups from the dropdown. You can assign multiple user groups to a user.
3. Finally, click on the **Update** button to update the details. 

To learn how to manage users, visit the [Users](/qwiktest/user-management/users.md) page.
