Adding Additional Instructors to a Course
Modified on: Tue, Jul 1 2025 11:11 AMBefore getting started select 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.
