How do I add administrative data for courses?

You add administrative data such as course types, result types, and fees to a course.

  1. From Student Central, click Search and search for Courses, and then select a course.

  2. On the Administrative Data tab, click Course Types and then select:
    • Course Type: Course type represents the component of a course such as lab and lecture. The course types that you add here are available for you to select when you create meetings for course sections.
    • Instructional Method: Instructional method indicates how the course is offered, such as in person, online or blended. This isn't a required field. The methods you select here for the course are available for when you create course sections. If you don’t select a method for the course, all methods are available when you create course sections.

    Configure course types in Manage Student Management Lookups with the lookup code ORA_HER_COURSE_TYPE. See Features to Set Up Before You Create Courses and Course Sections for more information.

  3. Click Result Types and add the result types for the course. The result types that you add here for the course are available for the course section.

    • If the course is gradable, add at least one result set for Course Result Types.

    • If you add more than one result set, indicate which set is the default.

    • If relevant, add a midterm result type:
      1. In the Other Result Types section, select a result type of Midterm Result.

      2. Select a result set. You can select multiple result sets.

    The result sets that are available to select are sets that are associated with the Course Result or Midterm Result type on the Manage Result Types page. See Result Types for more information.

  4. Click Fees and add the fees for the course. To add a fee:
    1. Click Add Fee.

    2. Search for the fee.

    3. Click the fee to add it to the Current Selections box.

    4. When you’ve completed your selections, click Add.

    Adding fees is optional. You can attach fees such as a course fee or materials fee if required or you can attach fees when you create the course section.

  5. Select Pay to enroll to indicate that students must pay for the course before they enroll in it, such as for Continuing Education enrollment and payment flows. Here's what happens in self-service:
    • If you select this option and attach a fee for the course or course section, the fee shows in self-service pages.

    • If you select this option and don't attach a fee for the course or scheduled course, Free shows in self-service pages.

    • If you don't select this option, no fee information shows in self-service pages. An example is a course that's part of a traditional enrollment flow.

Your next step is to add the identifiers for the course. See How do I add identifiers for courses?
