Uploading Users in Moodle
Step 1: Administrator clicks on Upload Users
As an administrator, go to Site Administration | Users | Accounts | Upload users:
Add a CSV (comma delimited) file to upload. Here and the fields and data for the ff example:
username,password,firstname,lastname,email
jdelacruz, 1JDsecret, Juan, De la Cruz, [email protected]
Tips
In field information, avoid special characters like quotes ("") and ň
A CSV file can be had from a list on Excel (or any Spreadsheet) by doing “Saved as” and choosing CSV format.
Use alphanumeric character combination (capital, number, small letter, special character) for a password.
Check settings and default user profile settings. Adjust these settings, only if you're absolutely sure about the need.
Additional fields like cohort and course may be added for convenience.

For most cases, you don't need to adjust anything here.
