# Set up publish as LTI tool enrolment

When used with the LTI [authentication plugin](/totara-20/docs/available-authentication-methods), this enrolment method it allows remote users to access selected courses and activities. In other words, Totara Learn functions as an LTI tool provider.

Once you have enabled the **Publish as LTI tool** (accessed via *Quick-access menu* > *Plugins > Enrolments > Manage enrol plugins*) you can then add it to your desired course.

1. From **Course administration** go to *Users > Enrolment method*.
2. From the **Add method** dropdown menu select the option **Publish as LTI tool (experimental)**.
3. Complete the [settings](/totara-20/docs/enrolment-method-settings) as desired.
4. Click the **Add method** button.

To share this new LTI tool with others you will need to go to **Published as LTI tools** from the **Course administration** menu. Here you will need to take a note of the either the **Launch details** or **Registration URL** so that you can share these with the other Trainer who wishes to utilise your LTI content. If the other Trainer is also using a Totara site then they can then add your LTI using the [external tool activity](/totara-20/docs/add-an-external-tool-to-a-course).
