In the way we work in our institution we have programs like
Master Studies of Theme A
Master Studies of Theme B
....each of them have its own individual courses.
We currently use Dokeos and group the users in groups,
so we can enroll the users in the corresponding courses easier, with less chances of error.
Do you think is there a chance to have similar behaviour with Dokeos?

Yes, there is a similar feature, but it's not groups.
Since ATutor 1.6.1 an admin can create a "pack" of courses along with a link containing a unique identifier. That link is given to users.
Following the link brings them to the registration page. After registering, they are automatically enrolled into all courses in a "pack" associated with that identifier.
The tool's located at System Preferences -> Auto Enrollment At Registration.

Along with Indie's suggestion, you could categorize the courses in each course program, so the courses students register in using the above method would all be located in one place.
If you wanted to enroll blocks of students automatically in a category of courses, it should not be too difficult to create a small module, or maybe a patch, that would allow you to enroll a bunch of students at a time.
