Program Curriculum Block (block_programcurriculum)
This Moodle block helps institutions manage program curricula, map external courses to Moodle courses, and let students track curriculum progress directly inside Moodle.
Requirements
- Moodle 5.0+
- PHP version supported by your Moodle 5.0 installation
Installation
You can install the plugin in two common ways:
Option 1: Clone from GitHub
Go to your Moodle root directory.

Open Moodle as admin and complete the upgrade process.
Option 2: Download and copy

- Extract it.
- Copy the extracted folder to: <moodle_root>/blocks/programcurriculum

What this plugin does
- Create and manage curricula (programs).
- Add external courses (name/code/term/sort order) to each curriculum.
- Map each external course to one or more Moodle courses.
- Provide automatic mapping suggestions using course name/shortname matching.
- Show student progress by:
- completion percentage
- enrollment percentage
- Allow students to mark external courses as completed (when permitted).
- Import curricula/courses from file.
Import format
The import page uses the structured text format.
Structured text import
Simple rules:
- Programs are separated by one or more blank lines.
- Each program starts with a program line:
Program Name - PROGRAM_CODE.
- Terms are defined by term lines (for example
1, 2, 3).
- Course lines use
COURSE_CODE - Course Name.
Example:
Computer Science - CS-BSC
1
CS101 - Programming Fundamentals
CS102 - Discrete Mathematics
2
CS201 - Data Structures
Information Systems - IS-BSC
1
IS101 - Intro to Information Systems
Notes
- If a curriculum with the same external code already exists, it is skipped during import.
- If a course code already exists inside the same curriculum, duplicate entries are ignored.
moodle_course_id can be empty if you want to import curricula/courses first and map later.
