Let's take a look at the basics of a Unit Enrolment record in Paradigm.

Unit Enrolment

Describes the academic progress in a unit of study for a specific student in a specific course

Paradigm Context

A Unit Enrolment record in the system requires the following records as prerequisites: Provider, Base Course, Base Units, Scheduled Units, and Student. Once the student is enrolled on a Course - the Course Enrolment record will now hold the academic progression of the student in that course of study. After enrolling on a course, the student can now enrol on scheduled units that will now create a unit enrolment record in the system that will hold the academic progression in a unit of study in a specific course.
