Add a Learner to an Assignment

Site Admins and Learning Admins can add learners to assignments that are in a Draft, Scheduled, or In Progress status. Site Admins can add any learner or audience to any assignment, while Learning Admins can add only their audiences, and the learners within their audiences to assignments that they created.

If you need to add learners to an Archived assignment, copy the assignment and assign the learner to that new assignment.
