How Can I Verify My Students for Figma Education

Hey ​@Nicola Vruwink, thank you for reaching out! 

The "An admin needs to update this seat so they can edit" message typically appears when team members need their education status verified. Here's what's likely happening:
 
For the edit access issue:

1. Anyone you invite with "can edit" access to your Education team must verify their education status within seven days (read more)
2. After seven days, Figma restricts their access to the team and they need to manually verify their education status (read more) 

To resolve this:

• Your students will need to verify their education status to gain edit access
• Once their verification is approved, they'll regain the ability to edit files (read more)

You can share this guide with them, which walks through the Education verification process step-by-step: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041061214-Figma-for-Education#apply. 

Let me know if you have any further questions, happy to help!
