Which settings are class-specific?
A class is a cohort of learners who complete a course together.
There can be multiple classes within one course on OpenLearning. The course runs primarily the same for each class. However, there are a few settings that are or can be made to be class-specific.
Pre-enrolment Questions
You can create a different set of questions for each class in your course.
How do I set up pre-enrolment questions for my course?
Announcements
Announcement pages are different from class to class. When you post an announcement, only learners of that specific class are notified.
How do I send course announcements?
Banner
Your course banner is automatically set to be the banner in all of your classes. However, if you upload a class banner, it will appear as the course banner in that specific class.
How do I change the class-specific banner?
Timeline
The pace of each class can be set differently. You can have one or multiple classes set as open, self-paced or with different start dates and schedules.
How do I set up access times for classes and course content?
Enrolment type
Separate classes can be public, private - manual enrolment, or private - accessed via an access code.
How to set up the enrolment type
Enrolment cost
Each class can be free or paid.
Learner List
The learner list for each class will reflect the learners enrolled specifically in that class.

If I have more than one class open at a time, which one do learners enrol in when they click Join Now?
Each course has a featured class which you can configure under Course Setup > General > Classes in your Course which functions as a default class.
However, if there are multiple available classes, it will allow you to select the class that you wish to enrol in.
