Hello @elarsenpps 

Thank you for contacting the Instructure Community. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "ClassLink" but in regards to adding users to courses under roles such as "aide" and "proctor" yes you can - depending on what the school has set up. Admins can create custom roles within the permissions tab for a school(s) or institution. This is often roles like aides, librarians, etc. It is an option absolutely - but you will need to speak with the school directly first and ask them to create the roles. Additionally, the school can restrict certain roles from adding other roles. i.e. a teacher can add a "TA" but cannot add student or proctor. They should be able to assist with any of this - hopefully it helps.
