Enrolling a Group in a Course

Use this screen to determine the list of students who are eligible to be registered in this LearnTrack.

6.      Check the boxes in the Ignore section to override those students who normally would not be allowed to be registered in the LearnTrack due to insufficient permissions.

 However, checking the appropriate boxes means that the restrictions (identified by a Conflict status in the search results) will be ignored in this search instance, giving you will have the ability to register those students.

Note: When available, you can also check the Show Reenrollments box to view those students who are eligible to be re-enrolled in a course. Their status will be shown as Complete/Reenroll. If this box is not available or not checked, the students’ status will be shown instead as Completed (and they cannot be re-enrolled in a course).

·        Click Select All (not shown) to check the boxes of all available users in one operation. Note that this option is available only for the Advanced Group Registration option. For all other types, all users in the search results will be automatically registered when you click Assign.

·        Click Clear All (not shown) to remove all check boxes in one operation. Note that this option is available only for the Advanced Group Registration option.

·        When displayed, check the Don’t send notifications box if you do not want to inform users that their status in the course has changed. By default, this box is not checked.

The screen will be re-displayed. The Status column for the selected users will change to Enrolled.
