Notifications for manual enrolment

Welcome to this forum!

Hi!

I may have brushed over this at some point but:

Is anyone aware on if you're able to have an automatic notification sent to all users when an audience is manually enrolled onto a course?

Thanks!

Hi Staci

There isn't a setting in the manual enrolment to add a course welcome messages .

Other options are

enrol the user in a program with the course included in it and then add a program enrolment message
change the enrolment method to self enrolment which supports welcome messages
create a forum in the course and autosubscribe users to the forum
use bulk user actions to send a message to the audience

The last option is probably the tidiest solution

This is something that is a requirement for most organisations. I think in future Totara Learn versions, the ability to establish course enrolment notifications is important.

Here here. We definitely require the ability for users to be notified if they are enrolled via an audience into a course. Currently this only occurs for certificatons/programs?

Hi Sarah,

This is definitely something we are working on as part of our Centralised notification library project. I couldn't give an exact date on its planned release as yet, but we are hoping for it to land in Totara 15 late this year.

regards,

George.
