Assign Instructors

From UniTimeWiki

Screen Description

In Assign Instructors, you can enter instructor names for each of the classes and set some properties of this assignment. When you assign an instructor to a departmental class, the preferences of the instructor are automatically inherited on the class if the instructor is marked as lead and has instructor preferences. You can assign more than one instructor to a class. You can also go through the instructional offerings (configurations) one by one using Next and/or Previous buttons.
