Edit Course Links in BeachBoard

Instructors can find the 'Edit Course' link in their course's horizontal navigation. If there are a lot of items on that navigation, but no 'Edit Course' try the 'More' link at the end of the list. If still not there, feel free to contact our BeachBoard Support team and we can help you customize your navbar to include this option.
