Auto-Enrollment Emails at Course Level

Hello,

It's my first time posting to the community forum, so I apologize ahead of time for starting a new discussion about this particular topic, but the old discussion I found is almost 4 years old - https://totara.community/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=16340.  

I was wondering if Auto-Enrollment notification emails at the course level, is a feature that has been added since '15, when it appears the question was last asked.

If it is something that can be done, then I am absolutely overlooking the setting and would love to be pointed in the right direction. If it isn't possible to have learners automatically notified upon course enrollment, I will look at creating a program & putting the course in there, as was suggested in the original discussion.


Thank you!

Kelli

Hi Keli,

This isn't possible yet, but we have a Feature request: TL-14769 - Add course enrolment Welcome Message for all enrolment plugins. Its highly likely this will be included in TL-5140 Implement general purpose messaging library in T13.

There is a workaround. You can use the Forum activity to send messages to enrolled learners buy setting the Subscription mode to 'Forced subscription' and setting a Subject and message, all enrolled learners will then be sent an email with whatever Subject & message you choose.

Its sent on the cron run.

cheers,

George.
