[Moodle] Course Categories, sub-categories and courses

[Alan Oh]

Ok. I finally managed to get this after several hours of fiddling. 
 
Requirement:
We have a couple of Course Categories with sub categories and courses
underneath them. The teachers are all under Course Creators (directive
from above Stephen). I have been trying to work out how to allow
teachers to view all courses without having to worry about enrolment
keys. Grant Henderson suggested  to Allow "View Courses" and that worked
a treat. However, it doesn't show the Course Categories but every single
course created (which can be quite a lot).
 
Result:
After fiddling with the role definitions, I came across the parameter
called "Update Course Settings" which when enabled with the "View
Courses" gives the Course Categories AND access to all courses. I hope
this doesn't blow up in my face down the track.
