You can add participants to your academic course, virtual community, commons or workbench. The rules are different for each environment.
Academic Course/Commons/Workbench: As an instructor, you can only add other participants as secondary instructors. Secondary instructors are not able to enrol others.
Virtual Community: As an owner in the VC, you can add other owners, secondary instructors, and students. Owners are the only role that can enrol others in the course.
Regardless of the environment in which you add the participants, the directions are the same. The only caveat is that there is a bulk enrolment option if you are enrolling students into VC.

- In the course that you want to add a participant, select Classlist from Management on the course navbar.
- Select Add Participants.
