Add a Co-Instructor
Co-Instructors must be added as an Instructor of Record in eServices/Course Input. This ensures that we are in compliance with Minnesota State and Federal regulations (such as FERPA). To have a co-instructor added to an academic course in D2L, you can either:
- Contact your department's administrative staff and have the co-instructor added in Course Input/eServices. Once that is done, it will be automatically reflected in D2L. Other departments/colleges have multiple instructors for a course listed in eServices/Course Input without issue.
- Or you can have your department's/college's administrative staff fill out the Add New Instructor of Record form.
