The Enrollment domain manages the relationships between a person and a Learning Unit and the collection and maintenance of learning results and records of activity that consequently arise from said relationships. During the course of exploring Enrollment, a new vision emerged for an expanded "Academic Plan." The new vision turned into the Kuali Student Learning Plan (LP). The LP represents a highly personalized, customizable capability that allows learners and their advisers to plan, track, and evaluate individual learning goals and outcomes over the course of their academic career. LPs place learners at the center of their own learning experience, allowing them to manage and to monitor their progress, records and information within a self-defined, contextual framework. The LP is an andragogic approach to learning, empowering learners to map, and assess their own goals, experiences, and outcomes.
Through the management of relationships, this domain determines whether an association can be created between a person and a Learning Unit and records the association. The Enrollment domain enables the learner to create a Learning Plan, record his/her learning intentions, make selections for desired learning units (such as programs, specializations and courses), check eligibility towards these learning units and subsequently register in these learning units. An LP can also be used to pursue personal, intellectual and civic growth, graduate and professional planning, and as a tool for reflection. The Enrollment domain enables a program advisor to identify cohorts of learners within a specified program so that s/he may perform academic evaluations such as graduation clearance. The Enrollment domain enables an instructor to identify a class list for the course s/he is teaching so that s/he may submit grades for this cohort of learners.
Through the collection and maintenance of learning results (i.e., grades, evaluation decisions, academic standing etc.), this domain becomes the central repository for such information. As such, it enables both the learner and the administrator to access these learning results. Instructors submit grades through this domain and academic advisors evaluate and record program audit exceptions. The person-to-learning results that are stored here enable reporting. This reporting includes both individualized reports like class lists or academic transcripts and aggregated reports such as institutional enrollment management and retention reports (e.g. average time to completion, failure rates by program, demographic profile analysis etc.)
