How To Bulk Message, Email, SMS Learners

This article is to highlight the bulk communication methods in Wisenet that will allow you to keep your learners up to date with your business’ operations.

Note: You can use the below methods to update learners about their study arrangements due to COVID-19. However, please note that it is important to reduce panic, use official advice from the relevant health authorities and not add to unnecessary noise. The focus is on helping learners attain accurate and consistent information at all times.

Bulk Email from Filtered Lists

Filtered Lists offer the simplest way to send bulk emails. The lists allow you to select records to action with ease.

This feature is available for Learners, Course Enrolments and Sales Applications. Simply, click on the Learners Tab in Wisenet and access any of the mentioned Filtered Lists pages.

Users find the go-to list for bulk emails is Course Enrolments. For example, you may want to send an email about the holiday breaks to all current learners who will be continuing their enrolment into next year. To proceed, you will first set the relevant filters, i.e. Course Enrolment Status = Current AND Course Enrolment End Date = More Than 31/12/2023. Then select all the records from the filtered result and select ‘Bulk Send Email’.
