An enrollment is the record that grants a specific student access to a specific course in your academy. Without an enrollment, a student cannot open or progress through a course, even if the course is published. Every time a student gains access to a course, whether by buying it, being manually added, or enrolling in a free course, Fayne creates an enrollment for them.

How students get enrolled

Enrollments are created in a few ways.
When a course is free, a student who is signed into your academy enrolls by opening the course and clicking Enroll. No payment step is involved. (Signing in alone does not auto-enroll a student in every free course; they enroll in the courses they choose.)
You can enroll a student in a course directly from the owner dashboard, and you can pre-enroll students in courses when you invite them. Those enrollments are created when you add them (or when the student accepts the invitation).
All published courses a student is enrolled in are immediately accessible. Fayne does not support drip-feed scheduling or course prerequisites, so a student can start any lesson in any order on day one.

Manually enrolling a student

You can add an enrollment from the owner dashboard at any time, regardless of how a course is priced. This is useful for comping a student, granting early access, or adding a student to a course they have not bought.
1

Open the student detail panel

Go to People, find the student in the roster, and click their row to open the detail panel.
2

Go to the Enrollments tab

In the panel, open the Enrollments tab.
3

Click Enroll in course

Click the Enroll in course button.
4

Select a course and confirm

Choose the course and click Add. The enrollment is created immediately and the student can start the course right away.
You can also pre-enroll a student in courses at the moment you invite them. When sending an invitation, use the course picker to select one or more courses. Those enrollments are created as soon as the student accepts the invitation.

Revoking a single enrollment

To remove a student’s access to one course without removing them from your academy:
  1. Open the student detail panel and go to the Enrollments tab.
  2. Find the course and open its actions menu (the three-dot icon).
  3. Select Revoke access.
The enrollment is revoked and the student can no longer open that course. Their progress for that course is not deleted, so if you re-enroll them later, their completed lessons are still recorded.

What students see: the My Learning dashboard

Once a student has at least one enrollment, their home screen in your academy becomes a personalized learning dashboard.

Progress overview

Each enrolled course appears as a card with a progress bar showing how many lessons have been completed out of the total.

Continue where you left off

A prominent prompt links directly to the next lesson the student should work on, so they can pick up without searching.

Lesson bookmarks

Students can bookmark specific lessons and find them again from their saved items.

Course cards

Each card shows the course title, thumbnail, and current progress. Clicking a card opens the course viewer.

The course viewer

Inside a course, students see a full-screen reading experience. The lesson sidebar on the left lists every lesson in order. Completed lessons display a checkmark, and the current lesson is highlighted. At the bottom of each lesson, Previous and Next buttons move through the course in sequence. Fayne marks a lesson complete when the student reads to the end of it (scrolls through the full lesson) or clicks Next to advance.
Students are not locked into a linear path. They can click any lesson in the sidebar to jump directly to it, regardless of whether they have completed earlier lessons.
