Adding Users to a Full Course Section
Due to limitations of D2L sections created by the Colleague integration when adding instructors you may receive an error stating this section is full.
Before getting started selecting the appropriate role if the person you are adding needs to be able to push grades at the end of the semester they will need to be added as a Course Director. Please reach out to the Registrar as updating this in Colleague is the only method to give someone this role.
Step 1: Add the Course Support Section
- Navigate to Course Admin -> Sections
- Select the blue Add Section button.
- Name the section "Course Support" and select the blue Add button.
Step 2: Add the User to the Course Support Section with the Appropriate Role
Please use the Roles and Permissions article to determine the appropriate role for the user you will be adding.
- Navigate to the Classlist (Course Admin -> Classlist)
- Select the blue Add Participants button and select Add existing users from the dropdown.
- Search for the individual you would like to add and checkbox their name in the list.
- Select the appropriate role from the dropdown and select the Course Support section created in Step 1.
- Click the blue Enroll Selected Users button to confirm the changes.
Step 3: Add the User to the Primary Section so they can view Students in the Course (Optional)
If the user will not be grading assessments or need to see students in the course you can stop here. If they do need access to view students we must add them to the section with students.
- Navigate to Course Admin -> Sections
- Select the checkbox next to the section with students and select Enroll
- Search for the user and checkbox under the section column to enroll them in the section.
- Select Save to finalize the section enrollment change.
