Overview

The Curriculum Management platform allows you to propose a new course or program. The overall process is the same for both; what differs is where you go to get started.

  1. To propose a new course, navigate to Curriculum Management > Courses.

  2. To propose a new program, navigate to Curriculum Management > Programs.

How To Do It

Step 1: Select “+Propose New Course/Program”.


Step 2: Select the form you’d like to use for your proposal, and then click “Submit”.


Step 3: 

  • Fill out all “Required” fields (they will have a “required” flag next to them) for Course proposals.

  • You can learn more about creating requirements/requisites here.

  • To use a single proposal to create multiple offerings (courses) in a cross-listed group, see “Submitting One Proposal for Cross-Listings” below. 

  • All changes to your proposal will auto-save; if you need to navigate away from the page before you submit your proposal – and need to access your draft later – you can find that at Curriculum > Drafts.

Step 4: When you’re ready, click “Submit Proposal” on the right-hand toolbar under “Actions”.

Submitting One Proposal for Multiple Courses in a Group

Overview

  • When proposing new courses, you can use a single proposal to create multiple courses in a cross-listed group.

  • Once the proposal has been submitted and approved, all courses will be created.

  • You can learn more about cross listings here.


How to Do It

Follow Steps 1-3 above, and then: 


Step 1: Specify “Subject Code” and “Course Number”.


Step 2: Under “Cross Listed Courses”, select “Click to edit”. 


Step 3: Select “Add Additional Courses”. 


Step 4: Input the Subject Code and Course Number for each of the courses you wish to add.


Step 5: 

  • Click “Save” in the “Cross Listed Courses” modal.

  • Upon saving, a new cross listed courses group is created and the additional courses are added into the cross listed courses question.

Step 6: When you’re ready, click “Submit Proposal” on the right-hand toolbar under “Actions”.

Pre-Populating Proposals

Overview

When a user creates a new proposal, they will see a "Pre-populate Data" card at the top of the proposal. This card allows them to select from either an existing proposal or an existing object (i.e. course or program) to pre-populate the form. This can help save you time if your proposal is very similar to an existing course/program or proposal. 

Pre-Populate Data from an Existing Proposal

If you wish to use an existing proposal to pre-populate your new one, select “Copy from Proposal”. The following modal will then pop up: 



Pre-Populate Data from an Existing Course/Program

If you wish to use an existing course or program to pre-populate your new one, select “Copy from Course” (or “Copy from Program” depending on where you are in the platform). The following modal will then pop up: 



Submission Error

When a user attempts to submit a proposal that is invalid, a text alert box will inform the user of the issue; it will include guidance on how to resolve it.
