Question
I am not using all my D2L Brightspace courses - what can I do? How do I remove courses I am not using so students don't see them?
Overview
Instructors can inactivate and remove D2L Brightspace courses with a few clicks using the Brightspace Courses self-service tool. An inactive course is hidden and not accessible to both Students and Instructors.
Note: If you want to restrict Student access to a course, change the Course Admin > Course Offering Information > Start and End dates. This will keep the course visible to Students and does not allow them to click into the course outside those dates.
To inactivate/remove a course:
1. Navigate to the D2L Brightspace homepage.
2. Click the Merge/Group/Remove Course Request in the Instructor Resources navbar menu or in the Instructor Resources widget.
