How Do Admin View and Edit Course Syllabi

Once the Syllabus Template has been created on the Institution, College, or Department levels, it may then be customized on the Course level by the appropriate admin. Once you have completed editing your Syllabi on the Course level, Instructors will then be able to edit the Syllabus in greater detail on the Section level. As an admin, you also have the ability to assign a Syllabus Template to a Course; to learn how to do so, please see the following User Guide on How to Attach a Syllabus Template to a Course.
