Sync Branches with Course Groups

Sync Branches with Course Groups

OVERVIEW

You can sync site wide branches with course level groups by adding the "Branch to members" enrollment method within a specific course. This will allow all members of the specified branch who enroll for your course to be added to the same course group. 

STEP 1: SET UP YOUR BRANCHES

Manually create or bulk upload your site branches and manually or bulk add users or set up a branch automation to filter users to your branches.

STEP 2: SET UP YOUR COURSE GROUPS

Set up your course groups manually or in bulk.

STEP 3: ENABLE BRANCH SYNC ENROLMENT (OPTIONAL)

Add "Branch sync" as an enrollment method to the specific course within which you want to sync branches with course groups.
Step 4.1: Inside the chosen course, click on "Enrollment methods."



Step 4.2: Add the "User segment members to group" method.



Step 4.3: Link the branch to the group you wish to sync within your course, then click "Add method."



The branch and group you specified are now linked and members of that branch who enroll for your course will automatically be added the group it is synced with.
