Before I start...
If you are hiding a course that was previously visible to users, ensure that you inform other staff that are involved in Teaching or editing the course that you have hidden it.
How do I hide or make a course visible?
- Navigate to the relevant course
- Go to the Administration block ( usually on teh right hand side of the page) > Course administration > Edit settings > Set course Course visibility to either Hide' or 'Show'
Caution
Avoid hiding a course without informing students of your actions especially during teaching and examination periods. We recommend hiding resources within rather than the entire course
