This document is about availability in Scholar Original View courses For Ultra courses, refer to the documentation here.
In Scholar, students are only able to see courses which have been set to “available”. Courses are initially set to “unavailable” so that instructors can prepare course shells before releasing them, and to make it obvious to students which of their courses are not using any of the Blackboard functions. Some instructors may want to make a course “unavailable” at the end of the semester, or if major revisions are being made to the course.
There are two ways to make a course available. You can use the Qwickly module at the top of your CNU Scholar main page, or use the Customization menu within a course.
Using the Icon at the Top of Your Course

Using Qwickly
If you want to make multiple courses available at once, you can use Qwickly. It is located near the bottom of the new navigation menu, under Tools. Select Tools, then Qwickly Tools from the resulting options.
The module will open in a new tab on your browser. Select "Course Availability" from the menu provided.
Your courses will appear as a series of toggles. Select a toggle to switch it from active to inactive or vice versa; an available course will show the toggle in green, while an unavailable course will display it in grey.
