I was playing around with Course Outcomes, testing them out. I imported an outcome, and now I can't remove it. Is there a way to remove imported outcomes?

Ahh. Okay, one more question- what type of admin are you? I am my university's primary account admin, so I wonder if I am seeing something that you do not and that may be why I can delete. I know some of our department-level account admins can't always delete stuff that other admins can.
I just checked the permissions in our account and there is one that states "Manage learning outcomes." We currently have it enabled for the roles Teacher and Designer, but I don't remember if that the default... this could be the issue you are running into, if you aren't able to manage learning outcomes, it may not let you remove it.... just a thought. You could check with one of your admins to see if they can remove the outcome. If they can, then you know it is probably a permissions issue somewhere- which is very important because you now know that someone else will run into the same issue.
Hi there, Zachary Lonsinger!
How are things going with your ability to delete an outcome? Given that this question is from over a year ago, and that you've been provided with some valuable feedback, I am going to go ahead and mark this question as "Assumed Answered." In the event you are still having an issue - we'd love to hear from you!
Hi Zachary!
Hmm... did you link the outcome to an assignment or rubric? If so, you have to completely remove it from that assignment/rubric before you can delete it. You can see if the item is aligned to an assignment or rubric by clicking on the outcome name, it will then pull up a page that shows you the items an outcome is attached to:
Now... if there is nothing that the outcome is aligned to, I'll have to think some more.
