Why does an unenrolled learner still have access to a course?
There are two scenarios that allow a learner who was unenrolled from a course to still access the course, or receive course reminders.
The first scenario is that the learner completed the course during a previous enrollment (i.e., a different enrollment than the one you unenrolled them from) and the course's Course Access After Completion setting is set to either Available or Limited.
The second scenario is when the course's Auto-Enroll setting is enabled for one or more of the following:
The course.
A group that the learner belongs to.
A variant that the learner is enrolled in.
A requirement that is part of a learning plan that is assigned to the learner
In this scenario, you should decide whether the Auto-Enroll setting needs to be enabled.
What group is used for a user’s course enrollment when the course has auto-enroll enabled for one of their groups AND the course has auto-enroll enabled in their assigned learning plan?
The user will be enrolled in the course via their group when all of the following are true:
The account’s group and learning plan enrollment automation settings are enabled
The course’s auto-enroll setting is enabled in both the group and the learning plan
If the account’s group and learning plan enrollment automation settings are not enabled, the user will not be automatically enrolled in the course. In this situation, you will need to manually enroll the user in the course and specify the group or learning plan that you want to use for the enrollment.
