Adding your first student

How to add a student to your organisation so you can enrol and schedule them.

Last reviewed

Add a student as a person in your organisation, then enrol them on a course. Adding the person and enrolling them are two separate steps, so you can add someone before deciding what they will train for.

Add the person

  1. Open Students.
  2. Choose Add student.
  3. Enter their name and contact details, plus anything your school records against a student.

The student now appears in your directory. At this point they can be booked as a renter or hirer even if they are not yet enrolled on a course.

What a student record holds

  • Contact details and any custom fields your school has set up.
  • Licences, ratings and medicals, with their expiry dates. These feed eligibility, so a lapsed medical stops a booking before the day.
  • Documents attached to the student.
  • Their enrolments and progress, once you enrol them.

Next steps

  • Enrol them on a course so their training starts tracking. See Enrolling a student on a course.
  • Assign an instructor if your school works that way. See Assigning instructors to students.
