Read.Courses.ForPerson

This method allows you to retrieve course properties from courses belonging specific person. If organisation level access is used, only persons belonging to the selected organisations can viewed. Additionally it is possible to include all courses properties or just a basic set of properties. Please note that if you choose to include all properties the performance impact on the server is higher, so only request these properties if you actually need them.
