Approval Required for self Enrolling in units:

Some units may require approval before you gain access to a specific unit. If this is set-up you will need to search for the unit as per above. You may then be posed with a question you need to answer. The approval is then sent to the unit owner via a notification in the My Units widget and they can then approve ( or not) your request to enroll.
