Course Registration

Course enrollment is the entry point to the entire certification lifecycle. Without it, peer mentors cannot obtain or renew their certification, which directly affects the organization's ability to staff assignments and maintain compliance with program requirements. For HLF specifically, expired certifications trigger automatic removal from public listings, making timely enrollment a retention and reputation concern. Centralizing enrollment in the app eliminates manual coordination overhead for coordinators, reduces no-shows through automated reminders, and gives organization admins real-time visibility into the training pipeline. This directly supports organizational quality assurance and reduces coordinator workload.

Course data is served from the shared PostgreSQL backend via a REST endpoint that returns paginated course listings with availability, dates, and prerequisites. Enrollment writes to the course_enrollments table and triggers a confirmation push notification via the Push Notification Service. The mobile UI uses the standard Activity Wizard pattern - a multi-step screen flow - to collect enrollment details. Automatic reminder push notifications are scheduled at enrollment time using a background job. The admin portal exposes enrollment management under the Certification & Training module. Role checks ensure only Peer Mentors and Coordinators can enroll; Org Admins can view and manage rosters.
