Need to set up a Program with pricing for Classes based on Credits? Enrollsy can do that!

Program Options

The first step in setting up a program is to create your Program Options. Please take a look at this support article for instructions if you haven't done that yet.

Enrollment Model

You will need to set up your Program with the Classes Enrollment Model. The Classes Enrollment Model applies pricing based on Class selection during enrollment or Class assignment by an Admin User after enrollment.

Class Selection

Select the following that applies:

Enrollees can pick their Class

Enable this setting to allow a Class calendar or list selection for one or more Classes from the Enroll Form. This setting is REQUIRED if you want Enrollees to pick their own Class and pay costs associated with the Program or Class. If you don't select this option, any pricing on the Program or Class level will not show on the Enroll Form (since they are not choosing their own Class). Program fees WILL show on the Enroll Form.

If you don't want Enrollees to choose a Class, please use the Simple Enrollment Model.

Enrollees can re-schedule their Classes

Enable this setting to allow Enrollees to re-schedule their Classes from within the Customer Portal.

Next, you can choose the Class view and how Enrollees can choose their Class.

NOTE: The setting Enrollees can pick their Class MUST be enabled for the following view to display.

  • List View (pick from one list)

  • Multi List View (pick from several labeled lists)

  • Week View (pick from a week-view calendar

  • Month View (pick from a month-view calendar

The first three views above have a similar creation experience. The last one is a bit different, as outlined in this article.

Pricing

Under Pricing, choose # of Credits. This applies pricing based on the number of credits enrolled. You define a "credit" and set the credit count for each Class. As people enroll, their total due will be calculated based on your credit categories and the pricing you've set.
