When creating a training module, planning in-person sessions is an essential aspect to consider. If you are using Chamilo LMS, you can easily set up activity sessions for your course or session. In this article, we will show you how to create 14 activity sessions for a course or session, each with a maximum capacity of 8 participants.
The first step is to create a course called "Activity Sessions" in Chamilo LMS. You can either enroll all participants if you already know who they are or leave the course open for self-enrollment from the course catalog.
Once you have created the course, go to the "Groups" tool within the course in Chamilo LMS. Click on the add group icon at the top to create a new group. You will create 14 groups, each corresponding to an activity session, with a maximum capacity of 8 participants per group. Make sure to give each group a clear name that indicates the date and time of the corresponding session.
To allow participants to self-enroll, check the box "Users are allowed to self-enroll in groups" in the properties of each group. You can also check the box "Users are allowed to cancel their group enrollment" if desired.
Once you have configured the properties for each group, you can disable the tools you don't need to prevent participants from using them. To do this, click "Unavailable" for each tool you want to deactivate.
If you need to manage many groups, you can also enable group categories. To do this, search for "group" using the dedicated search field in the "Platform" block on the administration page. You can create categories and define properties that will be automatically assigned to all groups within that category. This can help streamline the group creation process.
Using Chamilo LMS, you can easily create activity sessions for your course or training program. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can schedule 14 sessions with a maximum capacity of 8 participants per session. You can also allow participants to self-enroll without requiring authentication, and automatically close registrations once the maximum capacity is reached for each session.
