Requesting Your Course in e-Learning

If you are a faculty or staff member or the Graduate Teaching Assistant you may request a course by completing the Instructor e-Learning Course Request.

The version that opens up when you click on Instructor e-Learning Course Request is used for all Registrar Courses, this will require the Course ID, i.e ABC1234 or ABC1234L and the section(s) numbers, i.e. 3679 or 33FA,4295.

Registrar Course Creation Process

The Course Request Form is submitted
The System will check the Course ID, Section Numbers, the Instructor Username and to see if there are any Comments. If the Instructor is new or has never had a course in the system, the request will be held to verify the Instructor’s Status.
If all information is correct and there are NOT any comments, then the system will automatically create the course. This is done every twenty minutes (20) 24/7. This will occur on the top of the hour, 20 after the hour, and 40 after the hour.
The rosters for the course will be automatically added to the course and the students will be loaded when data is available from the registrar.
If there are any errors in the Course ID, Section Numbers, the Instructors Username or Role, or there ARE Comments, the system will hold the request for review by LSS Staff responsible for course creation to resolve the errors.
Even if the system creates the course automatically, you will not receive an email letting you know that the course has been created until the LSS Staff member manually sends the email. This happens only during regular business hours. You can access your course once it is created even without receiving the e-mail.

e-Learning Roster Request

This form is used if you already have a course for the CURRENT Semester and need to add additional sections to the existing course. This is NOT used to request new sections for a course that has NOT already been created for the Current semester. ONLY TO ADD ADDITIONAL SECTIONS TO ALREADY CREATED COURSES. If you use this form to request your course be created for the current term, it will delay the creation process. Furthermore, when it is created, you will receive and e-mail requesting that you do not use this form for this purpose.
