Session Group and Session Class

Info

Note

Once the session class combination rule has been set up, all students who enrolled into each class must follow that logic.

If your institution does not require the logic of session class, leave the field in blank.

Session Group:

A student must enrol to at least one option from each group. A group of sessions that are in the same category. For instance, sessions that belongs to Lecture event type can be categorised as group 1, which have a list of scheduled lecture options. Tutorial as Group 2 can have a list of scheduled tutorial option. Workshop as Group 3.

Session Class:

A unique approach that is subject to each institution’s rule combines a set of options. One from group 1 and the other from group 2 or 3, they both share the same class number. So that when a student enrols into one of the lecture options (e.g. class 1). The system will enrol the student into a tutorial option (class 1) that has the same class number by default.
