Hi~ So I have an e-learning course that I want users to be able to see in a catalog but cannot enroll themselves. To enroll, they need to contact their manager or an admin to enroll them. How can I set this up so that managers can also enroll them? 

 

I have this setting on because I want them to see the course is there but they need a manager or admin to enroll them: Only administrators can enroll learners. Users can see the course but they can be enrolled to this course by Admins only.

 

This setting of course only allows admins to enroll them in the course and as a manager, if they try to enroll their staff, they also have a lock on the course that says contact the admin.So how can I allow their manager to also enroll them in this course? 

Thank you.

Hi,
You will need to configure their permissions. You will want to grant them the "Enroll User" permission. 
FYI For general enrollment capabilities, the "Can only Enroll Learners" and "Can activate enrollments" permissions under the "Enrollment" section should be enabled. 

Hope this helps!

Note that managers have the same course access as users so if the course does not allow self-enrol,ents, the managers will not be able to enrol their users either. You can make your managers power users if you want them to be able to bypass this setting.

Thank you. I was afraid I would have to make them all power users to get around this setting. Thank you for confirming.
