Adding an Instructor to a Course

To assign an instructor to a course:

1. In the Courses section, locate a course and start editing it.
   
   
   
   
2. Then, go to the General tab.
   
   
   
   

3. In the Course Instructor section, you will see a default instructor, the user who created the course. However, you can assign a new instructor.
   
   To do this, start entering the first letters of the name, last name, or email of the user you want to make an instructor. When the system suggests existing matches, left-click to choose the name you want.
