It is generally best to create the Curriculum records after the course categories, courses and schools have been created and defined in their respective services. This allows you to focus on only creating the curriculum and not defining each course category, course, class and school, which takes you further into the lower levels of the Education Management hierarchy.
Follow are the steps to define a Curriculum:
- Open a new record from the Curriculum Definitions service.
- Enter the Name of the curriculum and an optional Description.
- Select the curriculum's Status. Options include Active, Expired or Cancelled.
- Specify the category for the curriculum in the Category field.
- This field links to the Curriculum Definition Categories service. See Creating Curriculum Definition Categories for more information.
