Create the Bulk List of Students to Enrol

There are three ways to create the bulk list of students that you want to enrol to scheduled units via the Paradigm’s User Interface. Depending on the complexities of your student cohort / criteria, and how your current students' data are coded, you have the option to choose either of these three possible ways in creating your bulk list:

You can search for students via this screen by Course Name, Enrolment Status, Institution, Funding Type, Start and End Date, Contact Mode and Hours, Order By, and Agent.

Refer to the instructions on this workflow How to ADD a List of Students to a Bulk List.

Upload a list from a CSV Source File. You can use this option if you have an existing (valid with all the required fields matching to Paradigm) CSV file with a list of students that you want to enrol to the scheduled units.

Refer to the instructions on this workflow Student > Upload Bulk List.

If you want to build a list of students to enrol using your existing saved report or generate a new report with your own criteria / conditions, then this is the best way for you to create the bulk list.

Refer to the instructions on this workflow Report Builder > Bulk Student Select.

Enrol to Scheduled Units

After creating the bulk list of students to whichever method you choose from the options above, you are now ready to proceed to enrolling the students to scheduled units.

  1. Choose Student > Bulk Course Edit menus on the side. Scroll down to the SCHEDULED UNIT SEARCH section. Search by Unit ID or Unit Name if you want only one specific scheduled unit, else, you can search by Unit Provider, Start and End Date, and Status. Click the SEARCH SCHEDULED UNIT button.

2. You can narrow down your search further by (
