Message Audience when enrolled

Hi All,

Is there a way to "Message all audience members" when their audience has been enrolled into a course?

If so it would be great to be pointed in the right direction of settings etc. or indeed if this isn't possible, any method of achieving this.


Scenario:

Category - Learning

Courses - A,B,C,D

Audiences - 1,2,3,4


When we enrolled Audience 1 & 3 to course C - how do we let them know?


Thanks

Hi Cecil,

The best solution for this at present is to use the messaging functionality available in Programs.

A Program can contain a single course & putting the course in a Program means you can use the following message types:

Message types

Message  Type 

Description

Un-enrolment

 A message is sent to a learner if they are unenrolled from a program.

Program overdue

 A message is sent to the learner when the program completion date for the learner has passed.

Program due

A message is sent to the learner a set number of days, weeks or months before the learner is due to complete the program.

Program completed

 A message is sent to the learner when they complete the program.

Learner follow-up

 A message is sent to a learner a set period of time after they have completed the program.
Exceptions report

 A message is sent to site administrators when there are new exceptions on the program. An exception occurs when the system is   not able to process an action related to the program, e.g. the completion date is set for 30 days from the position start date, but   this field is empty for a user assigned to the program.

Enrolment

 A message is sent to the learner when they are assigned to a program.

Course set overdue

 Sent a certain length of time after the current course set is due. The due date is calculated by adding the course set Minimum  time required to the date the user started the course set.

Course set due

 Sent a certain length of time before the current course set is due. The due date is calculated by adding the course set Minimum  time required to the date the user started the course set.

Course set completed

 This message will be sent whenever a course set is completed.


Hope this is useful - please let us know if you have any other queries.

regards,

George.
