Enrollment gives students permission to access your course. Moodle supports several enrollment methods.
Method 1: Manual Enrollment (Add Individuals)
1. From your course menu, click Participants.
2. Click Enroll users.
3. Use the search box to find the person by name or username.
4. In the Assign role dropdown, select the appropriate role (usually Student).
5. Click Enroll users.
Method 2: Self-Enrollment (Students Join Themselves)
This option lets students enroll themselves, similar to using an Access Code in Blackboard.
1. Go to the Participants page.
2. Open the gear icon or More menu and choose Enrollment methods.
3. Click Add method, then select Self enrolment.
4. (Optional) Set an Enrollment key (password) to restrict access.
5. (Optional) Add Start and End dates to control when enrollment is open.
6. Click Add method or Save changes.
Tips and Notes
● Roles: Each user has a specific role per course (e.g., Teacher, Student).
● Bulk enrollment: Uploading a CSV file of multiple users is usually done by a site administrator.
● Cohort Sync (if enabled): You can enroll an entire group automatically by linking a Cohort to your course.
● Access check: If students can’t see the course, confirm both their enrollment and that Course visibility is set to Show.
