Set Course Schedule & Details
The Course Schedule & Details Page is a page in Studio where you can set high level course details such as start date, description, course image, etc.
From Studio, select Settings > Schedule & Details.
Set Course Schedule Details.
- Course Start Date and Time – This is the date and time that the course content will first be available to students, if they are enrolled. Note that even though this sets the overall start date, you can still have different start times for different sections & sub-sections in the Outline. If you would like your course to be available as soon as you make it, then set a start date in the past.
- Course End Date and Time – This is the date and time that the course content will become unavailable. Students who try to access content after this date will be locked out. This field is optional and can be left blank.
- Enrollment Start Date and Time – This is the date and time that students will be able to start enrolling in the course from the /courses page. Even though they may enroll on this date, they can’t access course content until the start date. This must be set in the past in order for the course to appear in the course catalog.
- Enrollment End Date and Time – This is the date and time after which students will be locked out from registering for the course.
If you want to hide a course from your course catalog.
- Option 1: Set the enrollment date to a future date. Note that enrollment date must come before start date, so this only works if your course shouldn’t be accessible at all.
- Option 2: Go to the 'Advanced Settings' > Then look for 'Course Visibility in Catalog' > Change "both" to "none" and save the changes.
Set Introducing Your Course details.
- Course Short Description – This appears on the course catalog page when students roll over the course image. Limit to 150 characters
