The Browse Feature: Let Customers Preview Programs Before They Enroll

A complete guide to setting up, publishing, and customizing the Browse page — and what your customers will see when they visit it

Written by Serena Edwards

Overview

Browse is a public-facing page that lets prospective customers explore your Programs and Classes before they commit to enrolling. Share the Browse link on your website or in marketing emails, and customers can filter by Location, Enrollment Period, and Program — then enroll directly from the same page when they're ready.

Example: the Browse page for a sample company (ABC Company).

Admin Setup & Sections

Do I already have the Program Browse feature?

Browse is included with your Enrollsy account at no additional cost, and it's enabled by default for most companies. You can access the Browse feature by selecting Enroll on the left menu. There is also a link to your Program Browse on the My Company page. You can also publish and unpublish the link right there.

If you don't see it under Enroll in the left menu, contact Enrollsy support to have it unlocked.

What are the sections of the Program Browse feature?

From Enroll → Browse in the left menu, admins can configure the sections described below. Each section controls what customers see on the public Browse page.

Publish/Unpublish

Use the eye icon in the top pink bar to publish or unpublish the Browse page. A closed eye (gray) means the page is hidden from customers; an open eye (blue) means it's live. For details, see How to publish/unpublish Program Browse.

Hide Cost

You can hide the pricing on the Browse page by toggling on the switch "Hide Cost." This is helpful when you want customers to inquire before seeing pricing, or when pricing varies by enrollment options.

Filters

Filters are the customer's starting point. They select a Location, an Enrollment Period, and a Program Name (or your first Program Option). These filter options are pulled from your customized Program Options — see Program Options, Enrollment Models & Classes.

If a customer stops filtering at the Enrollment Period, every published Program in that period will appear. If they continue to a specific Program, only that Program's information will display.

Program Image (first Program Option)

Admin users can add an Image to their first Program Option (which is typically "Program Name" or something similar). An image can be added to ALL selections under the first Program Option. This is shown at the top of the Program information (see example below).

NOTE: All images will be uploaded as a square image (this cannot be customized at this time). See this article for specific steps to add images.

Program Description

You can also add a description of your Program here using a rich text editor, where you can edit text and add links, images, or tables. A description can be added to ALL selections under the first Program Option. This shows the Program information at the top (beside the image, if applicable). See this article for steps to adding a Program description.

Private Programs

If any of your Programs are private (the setting Make private is turned on), then they will not show on the Browse page unless you turn on the setting Show on Browse page in the Program Advanced settings.

With that setting turned on, Private Programs and their Classes will be displayed on the Browse page, but these offerings will not display an Enroll Now button or capacities. In order for anyone to enroll, they will still need the private enrollment link. See this article for how to generate a private enrollment link.

NOTE: The above settings cannot be turned on in bulk; it must be turned on on individual Programs.

Make Sure Browse Page is Viewable

Before customers can view your Browse page, complete both steps:

  1. Publish the Browse page. Click the eye icon on the far right of the pink bar (see "Publish/Unpublish" above).

  2. Publish your Enrollment Period(s). Programs only appear on Browse if their Enrollment Period is published.

⚠️ Heads up — Open Enrollment behavior: The Enroll button only appears on the Browse page when the Enrollment Period is published. If you use Open Enrollment, double-check that the period is published before sharing your Browse link.
