Add Requisites for Courses
When you create a course, you can add requisites for the course.
Adding requisites is optional.
If a course has both course and program prerequisites, a student must meet all prerequisites to enroll in the course.
When you add a course prerequisite, select a requisite scheme from those defined on the Requisite Schemes page. The mapping in the setup page influences what happens when a student enrolls in a course that has a prerequisite. Requisite Schemes
An example of a program prerequisite is an Economics major as a prerequisite for enrollment in an Economics course.
Here's how you add requisites:
-
Click the Requisites tab.
-
In the Course Prerequisites section, click Add Course.
-
Search for and click the courses that you want to add as prerequisites.
Courses are displayed in the Current Selections box.
-
Click Add.
If you add more than one course, the courses you add are treated as a list of courses which are all required to meet the prerequisite.
-
Select a requisite scheme (required).
-
Follow similar steps to add program requisites. A program requisite ensures that a student can’t enroll in the course section if the student isn’t associated with a program.
If you add more than one program, a student needs to be associated with only one of the programs, not all programs, to satisfy the requisite requirement.
-
You can add a description about the requisites, which students can see in self-service pages.
-
After you finish adding your requisites, go back to the Details tab to complete creating the course.
Here are the final steps for creating a course:
-
Go to the Details tab.
-
Change the status of the course to Active.
Note: All required fields plus ownership and academic level data must be saved before you can set a course to active.Note: A course must be active before you can create course sections. -
Click Save.
