About Course Availability

By default, your course is available to your students. However, you may change your course's availability status as you work on your course or once the course has finished. 


You may set your course availability as follows:

  • Available: When a course is available, students can access the content and participate in assignments and activities.
  • Private: When a course is private, the course appears in students' course listings but they cannot access it.
  • Complete: When a course is complete, students can access the content but can no longer participate. This option is only available for the Ultra Course View.


If you requested a course copy via the Course Copy Request Form, your course will have been set to private. You will need to make your course available in order for students to access the content.
