MNet remote enrollments allows a remote MNet host to enroll their users into our courses.

Setting up enrollments
Say I want administrators on ‘Site A’ to be able to enroll their users to courses ‘Site B’ I need to take the following steps. Note you need to set up Site B first before enrolling users to it.
Pre-requisites
- At least 2 networked peers
- Mnet Authentication plug-in enabled
- Mnet Enrollment plug-in enabled
Enabling a course for peer enrollments (Site B)
- Go into the course that you want to enable on ‘Site B’.
- Go to Course administration -> Enrollment Methods and add an Mnet enrollment instance linked to ‘Site A’
Enrolling Users (Site A)
Note this will only work for system users with lms/site:config capability
- Go to Networking -> Remote enrollment clients
- Choose Edit Enrollments in the action column for Site B
- Select Edit Enrollments in the Action column of the appropriate course (use refresh if not there)
- Enrol the relevant users
Accessing the course
The users that were enrolled will now have access to the remote site. the links will appear in the ‘My Courses’ area and ‘Course Overview’ block but not in the Navigation block under ‘Courses’.
The get_my_remotecourses() function can be used to work with these elsewhere
