Considerations before deleting a course or organization
- Course/organization deletion is permanent; once a course/organization is deleted, the content cannot be recovered. Make sure to save copies of any content you want to retain, including downloading a copy of your grade book.
- If you co-taught the course with additional instructors, please consult with them to ensure they have copies of any content they would like before the course is deleted.
- If you co-led the organization with additional leaders, please consult them to ensure they have copies of any content they would like before the organization is deleted.
Who can request that a course/organization be deleted?
