Modifying Categories

System Administrators and Course Creators are able to change the name, parent, ID number and the description of a course category.

Step-by-step Guide

To modify a category:

  1. Go to Site Administration > Courses > Manage Courses and Categories

  2. Click on the "Actions" icon (cogwheel) next to the category in question and select "Edit"

  3. Make the appropriate changes

  4. Click on the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page

Important Notes

  • If you are assigned the role of Course Creator in the context of a course category (e.g. you are a Course Creator in the "Online" category only), then you must navigate to that category in order to modify it. You will not see the Site Administration > Courses > Manage courses and categories option in the Administration tree.
