A course

Join a class of it

1. Read Upcoming classes: each says its unit, its dates and rhythm, its places and how it is joined.
2. Press Join on a class open to anyone it reaches.
3. On a class that asks first, press Ask for a place, write A note for the people running it if you like, and press Ask.
4. Answer the class's joining questions, if it asks any.

Then: Joining puts you on the class at once, or on its waiting list when it is full. A request goes to the class's facilitators, and you are told either way; approved on a full class, you join its waiting list. A paid place is held until you pay.

Grace's safeguarding certificate lapses in March. The course's page lists a class on February 6 that asks first: Grace asks for a place, the facilitators approve it, and it shows under My learning.

Complete what comes first

1. Read Before this course: the courses it asks you to have completed first, and whether you hold each.
2. Press a course's name to open it, and complete it first.

Then: Until you hold every one, as a completion that stands and has not lapsed, joining, asking for a place and a class's code all say which to complete first.

Youth leadership asks for Safeguarding basics first, and Mary Ann's safeguarding lapsed last month. The page tells them to complete Safeguarding basics first; the people running a class can still add Mary Ann, and are told they do not hold it.

Withdraw from a class, or take back a request

1. On a class you are in, press Withdraw from this class, or Withdraw from the waiting list where you are waiting.
2. Give a reason if you like, and confirm.
3. To take back a request still waiting, press Take back my request… and confirm with Take it back.

Then: You lose your place, and the first person waiting is given it, and told. The people running the class are told. You can join again later by the class's usual way in, answering its joining questions again.

A class Daniel joined starts next Saturday, and Daniel can no longer go. Daniel withdraws, giving the reason, and the first person on its waiting list is given the place, and told.

Change the course in the builder

1. Press Edit course. The builder opens on its first step; a draft always opens there.
2. Choose a step in the list beside it: Basics, Lessons & assignments, Scoring & completion, Certificate, Where it runs & joining or Joining form.
3. Change what you need, and press Save, or the Save · Next button to go on to the next step.
4. On a draft, press Publish once its checklist says every line is ready.

Then: A published course stays ready: a change that would leave a line of its checklist missing is refused. A class that has not started follows the course's lessons by itself; once it has started, its Work tab says the course plan changed, and whoever edits the class chooses what to take.
