Enrolment method settings

Enable manual enrolments

This specifies if enrol instances are enabled by default in new courses, it is strongly recommended to keep this setting enabled.

-

Default role

This sets the default role, which is normally Learner, and may be altered by an Editing Trainer in a course.

-

Default enrolment duration

This sets the default length of enrolment in new courses.

-

Notify before enrolment expires

Specifies if the Trainer (or optionally Learners) should be notified before the expiration.

-

Notification threshold

Specify how many weeks, days, hours, minutes or seconds in advance users are notified before the enrolment expiration.

-

Allow existing enrolments

Add the self enrolment method to new course.

-

Allow new enrolments

Users can self enrol in new course by default.

-

Use group enrolment keys

The setting for group enrolment keys in a course will be set to Yes by default.

-

Default assigned role

Normally, when users self enrol they have the Learner role. If necessary that role can be changed by default here, for example if your Totara has a dedicated role you wish to use instead.

-

Enrolment duration

This sets the default enrolment length for new courses (but again, may be altered by the course Trainer).

-

Notify before enrolment expires

Specifies if Trainers (or optionally Learners) should be notified before the expiration.

-

Notification threshold

Specify how many days in advance should users be notified before the enrolment expiration.

-

Unenrol inactive after

This sets the default time after which a learner will be unenrolled if they haven't accessed the courses (Trainers may change this).

-

Max enrolled users

Adding a number here will specify the maximum number of users who can self enrol into new courses. Trainers in the course can change this. If it is left at 0, there will be no maximum.

-

Send course welcome message

If this option is selected you can select the email address that the welcome message is shown as being sent from: 

• Send as first contact marked as course contact: The user is set under Quick-access menu > Appearance > Courses > Course contact
• Send as first enrolment key holder: The user that has the enrol/self:holdkey permission under Course administration > Users > Permissions
• Send as no-reply address 

If the welcome message for the self-enrolment plugin is set to be from the course contact but there are no course contacts enrolled or the role is not enabled, the message will instead come from the no-reply email address. The message should display as "Do not reply to this email" <noreply@1217.test> (the no-reply email address would be specific to your site).

If the message is sent from the course contact and more than one user has this role, the email is sent from the first user to be assigned the role. If the user is assigned the role in the course context, this overrides any role in the system context. If no users are assigned to the role at the course context it will go to the next user with the role at the system context.

Assign role

The role that will be assigned to members of the audience.

By default this is the Learner role.

Add to group

Select whether you want to add users from the selected audience to a specific group in the course.
