How do I send a message to all users in a course?

Once you have published a course and added learners, you can message users in your course. Messages are sent to the email address in each user's profile. You can select recipients according to course status.

Notes:

• Some features may be restricted based on permissions for your user role.
• Notifications must be enabled for the account.
• If a user has been unsubscribed from email notifications, the user will not receive any messages.
• You can notify users when you make changes to a course.

In the Global Navigation menu, click the Author icon. Then, click the Courses menu option.

Note: The Global Navigation menu may differ depending on what is enabled in your account.
