To register for classes on Workday, follow these general steps:
1. Log into Workday
- Use your institution’s Workday portal with your username and password.
2. Access Academics or Registration
- Click on the Academics icon or Academic and Advising Hub from your dashboard or menu.
3. Find Courses or Course Sections
- Use the "Find Course Sections" or "Find Courses" function.
- Enter the academic term (e.g., Fall 2025) and your academic level.
- Browse or search for courses you want to take.
- Review course details, prerequisites, and section information.
4. Create a Saved Schedule (Optional but recommended)
- Add desired courses to a saved schedule to plan your term.
- Review and resolve any alerts or conflicts in your saved schedule before registration opens.
5. Register for Classes
You have two main options:
Registering from a Saved Schedule
- When your registration appointment opens, go to your saved schedule.
- Click the orange “Start Registration” button.
- Review your schedule and resolve any conflicts.
- Click “Register” to enroll in all courses in your saved schedule at once.
- Confirm your registration on the summary page.
Registering for Individual Course Sections
- Click on the course title to view the course section.
- Click the white “Register” button at the bottom of the page.
- Review the course section and select any alternate sections if available.
- Click the orange “Register” button to confirm.
- View your registered courses to confirm.
6. Confirm Registration
- After registering, a summary page will show successful, waitlisted, or unsuccessful registrations.
- Check your registered courses list to verify your schedule.
Additional Tips
- You must register separately for each term.
- If you have prerequisites, ensure you are registered in those courses first.
- If you see a “Troubleshoot” button instead of “Register,” it means you are not eligible to enroll in that course section.
- Registration opens according to your appointment time; before that, you can only add courses to your saved schedule.
These steps are based on typical Workday registration processes used by universities such as UBC and others
. For specific instructions, check your institution’s Workday tutorials or help resources.
