Manage Course Enrollments#
You can enroll and unenroll learners from the instructor dashboard. See Enrollment Requirements for more information.
Enroll Learners in a Course#
To enroll learners or course team members, follow these steps. Note that this will enroll learners/team members even if the Enrollment Start Date has not yet passed.
Select Instructor, and then select Membership.
In the Batch Enrollment section of the page, enter the username or email address of the learner, or enter multiple names or addresses separated by commas or new lines.
You can copy and paste data from a CSV file of email addresses. However, note that this feature is better suited to courses with smaller enrollments, rather than courses with massive enrollments.
To streamline the course enrollment process, leave Auto Enroll selected.
To send learners an email message, leave Notify students by email selected.
Select Enroll.
You can view or download a list of the people who are enrolled in the course. For more information, see About Learner Data.
Note
When you enroll learners in a course, all learners are automatically enrolled in the audit enrollment track. For more information about course enrollment tracks, see Enrollment Track.
Enroll Beta Testers in a Course#
To enroll beta testers in the course, follow the above instructions, but utilize the Batch Beta Tester Addition box below the Batch Enrollment box on the Membership page of the instructor dashboard.
Unenroll Learners from a Course#
You can remove learners from a course by unenrolling them. To prevent learners from re-enrolling, course enrollment must also be closed. You use Studio to set the Enrollment End Date for the course to a date in the past. For more information, see Course Schedule and Set the Course Run Schedule.
Note
Unenrollment does not delete data for a learner. An unenrolled learner’s state remains in the database and is reinstated if the learner does re-enroll.
To unenroll learners, you supply the email addresses of enrolled learners.
View the live version of your course.
Select Membership.
In the Batch Enrollment section of the page, enter a username or an email address, or multiple names or addresses separated by commas or new lines.
In the Enter the reason why the students are to be manually enrolled or unenrolled field, enter a specific, detailed reason why you want to unenroll these learners.
To send learners an email message, leave Notify students by email selected.
Note
The Auto Enroll option has no effect when you select Unenroll.
Select Unenroll. The course is no longer listed on the learners’ Current Courses dashboards, and the learners can no longer access the course content or contribute to discussions or the wiki.
