Are you looking to enhance your control over learner enrollments and automate the closure of courses at specific times or dates? Here’s a comprehensive guide on effectively managing enrollments and auto-retiring courses to streamline your educational offerings.

Enrollment Deadline Setting:

At the Course Instance Level, administrators can utilize the “Enrollment Deadline” feature to enforce enrollment within a specified timeframe. Here’s how to set it up:

1. Navigate to the Course Instance Level settings.
2. Enable the “Enrollment Deadline” option.
3. Select a specific date by which learners must enroll.

Configuring this setting provides clarity and structure for learners, ensuring they enroll within the designated period.

Auto-Retirement of Courses:

To retire a course entirely after a set date while allowing existing learners continued access, utilize the “Auto Retire” feature:

1. Access the General Settings page from the Administrator role.
2. Enable the “Auto Retire” option.
3. Choose your preference for learner access post-retirement.
4. Set the retirement date for the course at the Course Settings page from the Author role.

Activating this feature ensures that the course becomes inaccessible for new enrollments while existing learners retain access to course materials.

Managing Retired Course Visibility:

Administrators can control the visibility of retired courses based on their preferences:

1. Log in as an Admin.
2. Navigate to Settings.
3. Access the Retire settings.
4. Choose the appropriate option based on your desired level of access for retired courses.

By managing retired course visibility, administrators can tailor access restrictions to suit their platform’s needs.

Enabling features such as Enrollment Deadline and Auto-Retirement empowers administrators to maintain control over course enrollments and access. Whether setting specific enrollment periods or retiring courses after certain dates, these options offer flexibility and convenience for both administrators and learners. Implement these strategies to optimize your educational platform and enhance the learning journey for all users.
