Course Templates with Preset Assignment Groups

I created a template for our faculty to use, in which the following is setup for them:

  • homepage
  • navigation menu
  • grading scheme
  • assignment groups with weighting

However, when I apply this template to a new course and then allow for the import of content (which is what they'd need to do), the assignment groups from the import duplicate those in the template (for example, there are now two groups called "Assignments"). 

The only way I can see to prevent this is for the content import to not include Assignment Groups, BUT that means that an Imported Assignments group is created and the faculty would have to then organize each individual item.

Is there an easier way to do this that I'm not thinking of?

The goal: preset the Assignment Groups to prevent user error in weighting and naming.
