How do I Add a Course Discipline?

Updated 2 min read

Disciplines categorize your courses by the type of training they cover — BLS, ACLS, First Aid, CPR/AED, and so on. Every course in CPR Enroll+ should be assigned a discipline. Disciplines are used to filter your course catalog on the student registration page, making it easier for students to find the training they need.

Before You Begin

CPR Enroll+ includes 13 built-in disciplines:

  • ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support)
  • ASLS (Advanced Stroke Life Support)
  • BBP (Bloodborne Pathogens)
  • BLS (Basic Life Support)
  • CPR/AED
  • EMS (Emergency Medical Services)
  • First Aid
  • First Aid CPR/AED
  • Heartsaver
  • NRP (Neonatal Resuscitation Program)
  • PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support)
  • PEARS (Pediatric Emergency Assessment, Recognition, and Stabilization)
  • Other

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Assign a Discipline to a Course

  1. Go to Course Builder > Courses.
  2. Click + Create for a new course, or ⋮ > Edit on an existing one.
  3. In the course form, find the Discipline dropdown.
  4. Select the appropriate discipline.
  5. Click Save.


Step 2: Browse Discipline Templates from the Marketplace

  1. Click Marketplace in the sidebar.
  2. Select Disciplines from the category dropdown.
  3. Hover over a discipline card and click Use Template to import it into your account.

✔ Disciplines as registration filters: On your student registration page, students can filter your class catalog by discipline. Make sure every course has the correct discipline assigned so students can find classes easily.

Best Practices

  • Assign a discipline to every course, even ones outside the standard 13, using "Other" if nothing else fits.
  • Double-check discipline assignment when cloning a course, since it's easy to overlook when reusing an existing course as a template.
  • Browse the Marketplace for discipline templates before assuming you need to build a new discipline structure from scratch.
  • Review your full course list periodically to confirm no courses are missing a discipline, since this affects how easily students can filter and find them.
