Why is it important to publish my course on time?

Access to course materials is very important. See what our students are saying about publishing courses on time.

How do I nickname my course?

You might find it difficult to distinguish between courses that have the same name in MyUni (eg. courses that have run over several terms or years). Nicknaming your course is a great way to solve this problem, and improve the organisation of your course list and Dashboard areas.

Try nicknaming your course with the year and term in which it ran. Simply click the dotted icon on the course card on your Dashboard.

Note that a course nickname only applies to your personal view in MyUni, and does not affect the course name for anyone else.
