Solution

I created a Vantage course, but now I need to delete it from my account. How do I do that?

The gear icon in the top right corner of your course tile opens the Course Management Tools menu.

At the top right corner of the course tile, the gear icon opens up the Course Management Tools menu.

The options available on this menu vary slightly depending on if your course is paired with your LMS or if students have enrolled in your course. Similarly, sample courses have a smaller tools menu.

This image shows the list of Course Management Tools. This course is not paired with an LMS and no students are enrolled, so it displays the full menu: Edit, Info, Copy, Archive, Delete.

If the course is archived, the menu changes slightly. Student enrollments and LMS pairing status still apply for archived courses, so the course management tools menu will reflect that as well.

The Course Management Tools for an archived course tile change slightly. Edit is not available to archived courses. The Archive tool changes to Activate to allow restoring the course from the archive. LMS pairing and student enrollment impact the tools available.

Delete is only available if no students are enrolled in your course. Once a student enrolls in your course, the option to delete will not appear in the Course Management Tools menu.

Deleting a course is irreversible. When you choose to delete a course, you will see a pop-up warning message. You can proceed by clicking Delete. You can also instead choose to Archive or Cancel without taking any action.

When you delete a course, a pop-up warning message appears explaining that the process cannot be undone. The pop-up gives you three options to proceed: Cancel, Archive or Delete.
