Delivery Methods

You can use the Delivery Methods page to configure the delivery methods you can select for courses (such as online or lecture). Different delivery methods can have different fees.

Prerequisites

To view the page, you must have Academics - Configuration - View authorization.

To edit the page, you must have Academics - Configuration - Manage authorization.

To edit an item associated with more than one campus, you must have access to all the campuses. For example, if the item is configured to be available at three campuses and you only have access to two of the campuses, you can view the item but cannot edit it. When you add an item, you can only select campuses to which you have access.

If you want to automatically add class sections for the campus, you should be familiar with Automatically Add Class Sections.

Access Method

Select the Configuration tile > locate Academic Records > select Delivery Methods.
