# How learners find and enrol in a course

**Who this is for:** Learners, and staff who want to know what learners experience

This article describes the learner’s side of enrolling in a free course.

## Finding a course
Open the course catalogue from the left navigation. The page shows featured content at the top and **Explore Courses** below, with:

- **Search courses**
- **Type**, **Price**, and sort filters

Each course card shows its image, title, rating, and price.

## Enrolling
**Step 1:** Click a course to open its page. You’ll see the description, the course outline, and an enrolment panel on the right.

**Step 2:** Under **Choose enrollment plan**, review the available modes and what each costs.

**Step 3:** Click **Enrol Now**.

A message reads *“Completing enrollment: Your access is being prepared. You will be redirected automatically.”*

From here you can also **Set your pace** and, once you’ve taken the course, **Write a review**.

**Note:** If a course doesn’t appear in the catalogue, it’s either unpublished or invite only. Ask your administrator.
