The Synchronize Credentials function allows you to carry forward existing mapped qualifications to course sections in a subsequent semester without having to import a new credentials mapping file or update a faculty member manually.

For example, if faculty qualifications have already been mapped for course sections in the Fall Semester, they can be carried forward to sections of the same course in the following Spring semester automatically.

 

Course sections in the selected semester with no mapped faculty qualifications will be updated as follows:

 

  From another section of the same course in the selected semester that already contains mapped qualifications

  OR, if no other section of the same course in the selected semester exists:

  From the most recent prior semester that contains a section of the same course with mapped qualifications.

Note: You cannot synchronize retroactively;  i.e. update earlier course sections from a later semester.

To Initiate Synchronization

1.Select the Semester in which course sections will be updated.

2.Select the Department(s) for which course sections will be updated.

3.Click Submit

4.After synchronization, a report will be generated.
