Coursedog Curriculum Training

Coursedog Overview

Coursedog's Curriculum Management processes course and program proposals and is integrated with Campus Solutions, ISU's student information system, and the Coursedog Catalog. After proposals are approved, integrated fields are merged with Campus Solutions and catalog copy fields are merged with the catalog. 

Coursedog (non-ISU specific) Curriculum Management System Training Resources
Please note that these are general Coursedog resources. Some of the features discussed in these may not pertain to how Illinois State University has Coursedog configured. In addition, Coursedog functions on a role-based access so not all users have the same role access and will see different features based on the role they have been assigned.
