What you're checking

You can add a new dated class offering under an existing course — set dates, seats, price, meeting pattern, and the name learners will see — starting from the certificate program (not from a loose course list shortcut).

Use Open training site, then sign in as Program Manager.

Use the Paralegal Studies Certificate path to Legal Research & Writing. That keeps enrollment and publish working later.

Important: For this walkthrough, start from Certificates, not the standalone Courses tile alone.

Step 2 — Create a new draft section

  1. Click Create section
  2. Confirm the page title is Create section and the trail shows Paralegal → Legal Research & Writing
  3. Enter Start date, End date, Capacity, and Section price (for example Jan–Apr 2027, 25 seats, $675)
  4. Leave status as Draft
  5. Click Save section
You're done when

Step 3 — Add the section name and schedule

  1. On your new section, ⋯ → Edit section
  2. Use the step strip — open Details & schedule
  3. Enter Section name / number (required — for example Spring 2027 — Evening Cohort)
  4. Check Modality and Location fit how the class runs
  5. Add meeting times if the class is not fully online/async
  6. Click Save details & schedule
  7. Read the Learner-facing summary — would a learner understand it?
You're done when

Step 4 — Peek at the internal preview

  1. Click Preview (internal) from the section workspace
  2. Check dates, name, and schedule wording
  3. Go back to Details & schedule
You're done when

Extra time — Copy a section for another term

  1. Back on the section list, open ⋯ on an existing section
  2. If Duplicate section is there, use it
  3. A copy should bring settings forward but leave dates and price blank for you to fill in
  4. Save as a second draft
