If you want all your institution's teachers to be able to make course requests, you need to select and add all their names to the Existing users list.

	==~~Add~~ a ~~Course Request block~~==		==Requesting a course==
			Those users who are allowed to request a course will be able to do so from the three dots top right of their My courses page.

	Now, this will work fine for those users who already have a Teacher role in at least ONE course on your Moodle site. When they log in, they will see the list of course(s) that they are enrolled in as Teacher(s) plus an All courses button. Clicking on that '''All courses''' button will show the complete list of courses on the site, plus a '''Request a course''' button, which they will be able to click to request a course.		[[File:courserequestrole.jpg\|left]]

	However, those Moodle site users whom we have assigned to the Course requester role in System ''and who do not yet have a Teacher role in at least ONE course on your Moodle site will not see that '''All courses''' button'', since by default all the available courses will be displayed. And consequently, the '''Request a course''' button will not appear to them. To solve this, a further step is required, viz. creating an HTML block on the front page with a direct link to /course/request.php! And of course that block will have to be made invisible to students etc.

	~~# On the front page add a block~~: ~~HTML: title: ''Course request'' contents: ''Click here to request a course'' with a link to <yourmoodlesite>/course/request.php~~
	# Click the 'Assign roles' link and then in the administration block click the permissions link and edit the permissions so that only users with a Course requester or Teacher role will be able to view that block; students etc. won't see it.

	Now Course requesters who are not yet enrolled as Teachers in Courses will be able to see that HTML block, click on the link and request a course. Of course, this block is redundant for those Course requesters who are also Teachers, but it is needed for Teachers requesting the creation of ''their very first course'' on the Moodle site.
