Add Users to a Learning Group

There are three options to add users to your learning group:

1. Add users directly
2. Add bulk users directly via CSV upload
3. Invite users by sending a unique registration code

Add vs Invite Users

It’s important to select the correct option when enrolling students to ensure you are not breaching anti-spam laws and creating a negative user experience.

Add Users Directly

This method is for directly adding members who are expecting to be added or you otherwise have their consent.

1. Navigate to the Group Management page
2. Select the group you wish to manage (if you only manage one group, this will be default)
3. Click on ‘Enroll New User’. If this is not visible, check remaining group registrations. If the number is ‘0’, please contact us to discuss your arrangement
4. Add the user’s first name, last name and email
5. Add more users by clicking the + button
6. When you are finished, double-check all details and click ‘Submit

All users on the list you just submitted will receive an email with their group details, courses they are now enrolled in, and password. The user can now login and see the group they have been added to, and associated courses they have been enrolled in.

Add Users via CSV File

This method is for directly bulk adding members via a CSV file who are expecting to be added or you otherwise have their consent.

1. Navigate to the Group Management page
2. Select the group you wish to manage (if you only manage one group, this will be default)
3. Click on ‘Enroll New User’. If this is not visible, check remaining group registrations. If the number is ‘0’, please contact us to discuss your arrangement
4. Click on ‘Upload Users’
5. Click ‘Choose File’ and select your CSV file. If you are not sure how to setup a CSV file, click ‘Download Sample CSV’, and open the template in Excel or Google Sheets
6. Click ‘Upload’

Send Users a Unique Registration Code

This method is for inviting (rather than directly adding) members to join your group. It is different from the above two methods in that the users will have to create an account themselves, with a unique group code that will automatically add them to your group and enroll them in associated courses.

1. Navigate to the Group Management page
2. Select the group you wish to manage (if you only manage one group, this will be default)
3. Click on ‘Group Code’
4. Click on ‘Create New Code’ or copy an existing code
5. Click ‘Generate’ to generate the code
6. Click ‘From’ and ‘To’ and select dates
7. Click ‘Validation’ rules if you want to only allow users from a certain IP address or @domain – this is useful in a corporate/education setting as it code will be blocked for people who don’t meet the validation rules
8. Turn ‘Status’ on to make the code active
9. Click ‘Submit’ and ‘Back’ to return to list of codes
10. Send your invited users (via email, text or any other means):
    1. The link to the registration page: https://austererisk.com/group-registration/
    2. The code you generated

When your invited users click the group registration page, they will be required to enter their first name, last name email address, password, and the unique code. After registration, they will be members of your group and enrolled in all associated courses.
