Assign courses to departments

Assign courses to departments

I need to assign courses to departments and whenever a user is added to the department, he should automatically be enrolled into the course.

I am wondering if the way to do it is to have a new UI allowing a department, course mapping and then running a cron every night to check and add/remove users in the department to the course.

Is there a simpler alternate to this?

Hi Punitha
If your courses are in (department) Categories you can assign the relevant users to the relevant role for that Category. This means they have automatic access to that role to every course within that category.
I hope this helps
