Course team creation: Course Teams are created for a given course when the Office of the Registrar register the course section and CRN.
Course team membership: Course teams are populated with members (students) and owners (instructors) overnight. It can take up to 24 hours after course registration for students and instruction to be placed in a course team. Instructors can manually add additional team owners and members (other co-instructors, TAs, etc) as needed. Waitlisted students _are_ included in Course Team membership. Students don’t actually get to view/access a course team until it is ‘activated’ by the instructor. Learn more about how and where course activation is performed here.
Course Team archival: After a course’s term ends, the course team is scheduled for archival on the first day of the subsequent term. Information about what archiving a team does to it is described in the ‘What happen when a team is archived’ section of this page. Course Teams are archived for TWO years, learn about restoring your team on this page.
Course Team deletion: After a course team has been archived for two years, it is deleted. Instructors and students are removed from course teams prior to deletion so that the teams cannot be un-deleted (team owners can un-delete teams). A deleted course team can be recovered for 30 days after it is deleted.
