As an Admin, how do I set up a sandbox for my teachers to begin creating a course?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello there, @rcpete5_1 Welcome to the Canvas Community. Thank you for posting your question. Here is a Guide for you to look at: How do I add a course in an account as an admin?. You can name the sandbox courses whatever you want. For example, we give each of our faculty their own sandbox course to play around in or build content. We put their last name and first initial of their first name as the course title.
I hope this helps, Robin. Sing out if you have any questions. Be well...stay safe.

@Chris_Hofer that was so funny! I found your answer from a previous question and was going to post it and give you credit. But you actually went ahead and did it just now!
