Scheduling Classes


If a course is offered at more than one time or more than one location, each offering of the course is called a class. You can schedule multiple sessions for a class. Each class session is identified by a unique numerical code.

You can schedule class sessions for the same day and the same time, but in different rooms. Instructors and students can be associated with a class. Though not required, class sessions allow for greater flexibility in managing time, room, and instructor changes that may occur during the course of a multiday classroom event.

This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Class Schedules and Sessions.
