# Define user access to course within a collection

Define user access to the collection to define who has read access to the collections.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

Create a collection. For more information, see [Create a content collection](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/employee-service-management/learning-core/create-course-collection.md).

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **Learning** > **Content** > **Collection**.

2.  Open the collection that you want to define user access for.

3.  On the Can Read tab, click **Edit**.

4.  Add users who should have access to the course catalog.

5.  On the Cannot Read tab, click **Edit**.

6.  Add users who should not have access to the course catalog.

    **Note:** If a user is present in both Can Read and Cannot Read related lists, the Cannot Read takes precedence and the user is restricted from read access to that course catalog.
