Hi @RobertMorrison,
This is something you'll likely need to talk to the school/institution offering the course about. There are multiple different ways registration can be handled. While we here in the global community of Canvas uses can answer a lot of questions, we don't have any access to your school's information, so we're unfortunately unable to answer questions about registration or related things like that.
Apologies that I could not give a more exact answer, but I hope this helps guide you to someone that will be able to help!
