The STUDENTS field is how many students can add all the modules in any given menu to their library. For example, if you need five students to take all the modules in the menu 'ISO 9001:2008 Internal Auditor Training'; type the number "5" next to 'ISO 9001:2008 Internal Auditor Training'.  You will receive one Registration Key for that menu, but all five students will be able to register the entire menu using that single key. Each of the five students will get every module in the menu.
