Intended Audience: Catalog Managers
About
Michigan’s Online Course Catalog enables its users to import course syllabi from third-party vendors. This procedure outlines the steps to import a syllabus for the purpose of creating a course offering.
Third-party courses can be imported only when Catalog Managers obtain a "Vendor Code" from a Content Vendor.
