If your course contains face-to-face sessions, you generally want to display them to the learners before they enrol in the course. This is to prevent a user from enrolling in a course only to find out after the fact that they cannot attend any of the sessions due to a scheduling conflict.

Step-by-step Guide

To display the available sessions in the course description:

  1. Go to the course in question

  2. Click on Course Administration > Edit Settings

  3. In the course description field, enter {filter_facetoface} (with the curly braces) wherever you would like to display the list of upcoming sessions.

  4. Click on the save button at the bottom of the page.

By following the steps above, the learning environment will replace the {filter_facetoface} text string with a table listing all of the upcoming sessions.

Important Notes

  • The learning environment will automatically hide the sessions if users cannot register for them (e.g. if the class is full, if the registration period has passed, etc.)

  • The “Sign up” button will not appear if you are using the “Self-enrolment (Advanced)” method AND payment is required. This enhancement will become available in a future release.

  • If the "Sign up" button does not appear, please read Displaying the "Sign up" Link in the Course Description
