# Upload instructors in bulk

If you wish to add a large number of instructors, it is more convenient to use the bulk creation feature.

In this case, we recommend that you create your collections first so you can assign them to your new instructors at the same time.

## STEP 1: Create Collections

1. Go to the Collections section and click "**Add a Collection"**
2. Assign a name to the collection.
3. Keep the box "**Needs approval**" checked if you want students access to be granted by the instructors (read more [here](https://support.senar.io/using-senar-studio/collections-accessible-upon-approval)).
4. Add simulators by dragging them to the "Simulators included" column, or by clicking the green '**+**'
