SacCT COURSE WIZARD

 

Introduction

BEFORE you complete the steps below, make sure you’ve activated your course using the SacCT Self-Service tool. After activating a course, it should be available within SacCT in one to two hours.

Once you click on the link for a newly activated course in SacCT you will be prompted with the SacCT Course Wizard as shown below. This wizard enables you to decide whether you want to start the course from scratch, or whether you wish to reuse course content from another course or source.

You only need to pick 1 of the 3 options. You only can use 1 method per course. Make sure that you understand what each selection entails before you decide to add content.

For more information and instructions about each method please click any of the 3 links below to learn more.
