[ARCHIVED] I don't have a "Start a New Course" Button on my Dashboard

[balthuus2003]

On my Dashboard, I can't see a "Start a New Course" button.  How can I add this to my Dashboard?

When the "Start a New Course" button does not display for a user, it generally means that the local Canvas admin has disabled that ability for your role. Please reach out directly to the local admin or eLearning department for the organization to request a new blank course shell.

Do you know who I would contact if I am using a private account and the Canvas team is unable/willing to help?  Who would my local admin be?
