I have numerous courses in the unpublished list of my dashboard. How do I delete a course from the list?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@VarreCummins Welcome! If you want to delete a course, you can follow these instructions on deleting a course:
How do I delete a course as an instructor? - Instructure Community - 1181
Do note that depending on your institution, you may not be able to delete courses -- if you can't, you'll want to contact your institution's Canvas support/admin for support on deleting these courses. Hope this helps!

I recommend that you contact your admin, as these courses may need to be active for another teacher or student.
Your admin can deactivate or remove you from the course, or conclude the course, rather than deleting it.
Let me know how you go.
Thanks
