FAQs
Q. What if I need to find multiple Course IDs at once, because my list has lots of different courses?
A. You can download a csv of Courses, including their ID numbers from the Courses app. Use this list alongside your RAP or MEC import template to match your course names to ID numbers.
Q. Why can't I just import using a Course Name?
A. In order for the import process to match to the Courses app and for it to work for up to 10,000 records in a single import, it needs to know exactly which course you are referring to. Course names are often very similar across Years of Entry and Levels of Study. Sorry about that one, but that level of matching would be a bit too slow! 😴
