Is there a way to make the switchboard show items depending on the access
level of the person logged in?
 
Sure. Add a column in the switchboard table for permissions level Build a
table of usernames and permission levels. Use a query to link the 2 on the
permission level.

If you are not using user-level security to get the login identity, you can
use their Windows login username:

That should get you started. POst back if you need more, with specific
questions.
