Bulk Enrollment – How to enroll students or faculty into manual courses

Ref # - 9243

Program Administrator

Program Assistants and Program Heads are able to add “participants” (example: students) in bulk to an online manual course which is faster than adding each student individually.

Create an Excel file and populate the cells/columns according to the sample below.

 

Notes:

  • Below steps for bulk enrolling students or faculty will work only in a manual, sandbox course shell.
  • Bulk enroll will not work in a course shell with a CRN.
  • The Excel spreadsheet must be created with the following columns: BCIT ID, Role in the Course
  • Columns in the excel file should NOT contain headings

Example

Steps for enrolling these individuals in a course

From the online course, select Course Tools > Classlist

Click on Add Participants > Import Users From File

From Import User From Files, click Brows > locate the saved csv file and click on Import

It should import and show who is uploaded (with their name) and any errors.
