Setting up Classes with Vouchers

Once the vouchers are available in the TMS, you can use them to set up a class.

Skillable lab access is controlled by class start time. This allows you to set up the class with labs well in advance of class starting. Students will not be able to access the labs until they are enrolled in the class and the class has started. Instructors can access the labs as soon as they are added as instructors to the class to allow them to prep for upcoming classes. You do not need to purchase labs for the instructors.

Class Creation

To set up a class after a purchase, open the Manage Class Vouchers page:

1. On the Site Administration page in the Class Vouchers tile, select Manage Class Vouchers.

2. On the Manage Class Vouchers page, verify that your Vouchers show in the Available column. You cannot create classes until the vouchers show as available.

3. Scroll down to the Create Class section. In the Course field, if needed, select the dropdown to choose the course for which you want to set up a class.

4. Enter the number of students who will be enrolled into the class in the Students field. Since you can create multiple classes using your available vouchers, this can be less than or equal to the number of vouchers that are available for the course.

5. Select Create Class. This will create your class and automatically take you to the Create Class page for further configuration.

From here you will enter the Class information to make adustments to the class:

1. Confirm, and correct if necessary, the information displaying in the Basic Information section.

   2. Confirm or revise # Sessions for your class.

   3. Check the Days the class will be held.

   4. Set the date the class will start in the First Day field.
