If you want to enroll someone shopping your course but have them automatically removed if they don't register for your course, use the enrollment duration setting when enrolling a user. After you click on the Enroll users button to open the Enroll Users pop-up window, click on Show more ... link and set the duration of the enrollment for 2 weeks (or whatever value you would like).

If the student registers for the course, they will be added via Banner and will remain enrolled after the enrollment duration expires.

You can import a CSV file with a list of users, and their groups, to Moodle to assign course participants to a group upon import. This can be handy when creating many sets of groups within a course.
To do this:
Go to your Moodle course
Click on Participants → Bulk Enrollments
Import your CSV
Sample CSV Import File
| Code Block |
|---|
email,group
"aweed1@swarthmore.edu","Group A"
"aruethe2@swarthmore.edu","Group A"
"aturner2@swarthmore.edu","Group A"
"dwillen1@swarthmore.edu","Group D"
"jword1@swarthmore.edu","Group J"
"aweed1@swarthmore.edu","Group B" |
Configure the options in Mappings and Other Settings
Click Enroll them to my course
After clicking Enroll them to my course, the plugin will redirect you back to the Bulk Enrollments page. Click on Participants to ensure the import went through.

If a user has multiple rows in the CSV import, the row closest to the end will become the source of truth for that user. |
Removing Users
If you would like to remove a user from the course, click the Participants link at the top of the course, then click on the trash can icon on the far right of a user record.

Instructors have full control over manually enrolled users (Student role), but cannot modify enrollments made via Banner (Registered Student role). To remove a student enrolled through Banner, the Registrar's Office must un-enroll the student from the course. |

Students automatically added from Banner are set to the Registered Student role
Manually added students should have the Student role
Teacher is the role for the main instructor(s) of the course
Teaching Assistant can do everything a Teacher can, except remove the teacher
Course Builder can edit the course materials but not see grades
Grader can enter and modify grades but not edit course materials
Auditor has the same permissions as a student, but does not have a gradebook entry so can't participate in graded activities.
Additional Notes
You cannot remove students enrolled via Banner (Registered Student). The student must be removed via the Registrar's Office.
If you manually add a student and they are later added from Banner, you don't have to remove their manual enrollment. It is okay to be both a "Student" and "Registered Student"
