Overview
There
are several ways to enrol a student in the Student Management System. A system
administrator can manually create a student and then enrol them using the
Enrolment Wizard. Another option is to enrol a student via the Online Enrolment
Form.
In
this tutorial, we will learn how to create students in the system and enrol
them in a funded program using the Enrolment Wizard.
Step Tutorial

this tutorial, we will select an existing student and enrol that student in a
funded program for VIC.

the Please Select Student drop-down menu. Search for the student you
want to enrol and then select.
2. Go to the Enrolments tab on
the student page and click New.
This
will open up the Enrolment Wizard Modal.

Enrolment Wizard will initially show only the standard two tabs: Enrolment and Units. If the program instance you are enrolling in is funded, the AVETMISS-Contract tab and the Payments tab will also be available. Suppose the program instance
