By default, TAs automatically receive access to Moodle in the role of Non-editing teacher. As the name suggests, Non-editing teachers cannot edit Moodle pages. They have the same access as students to post files and contribute to forums and activities. They can also access and grade student submissions, but they cannot add or edit Moodle resources or activities.
Your Graduate TA Needs Access to Moodle

Step 1.

If your TA cannot access your Moodle course, confirm with the Academic head in your department or request the Moodle Unit to assist 

Step 2.

Once Moodle is updated with the latest information from the department, your TA will automatically be enrolled in your course as a Non-editing teacher.

Your Undergraduate TA Needs Access to Moodle

Undergraduate TAs, some "unofficial TAs", and undergraduate and graduate students who assist with limited course activities (e.g., grading) receive access to Moodle

Add Course Designer Role for a TA

As an instructor, you are able to expand your TAs abilities. Adding the role of Course Designer for TAs will allow them to upload files, create pages, create and edit Moodle activities, and adjust some course settings. For a comprehensive list of Course Designer and Non-editing teacher permissions, see Roles in Moodle. Note: You can only add or remove roles that were added manually in the course. 

Add Full Gradebook Access for a TA

Adding the role of TA-Manage gradebook will give a TA full access to the gradebook, including setting up categories or calculations and exporting data. Note: You can only add or remove roles added manually in the course
