### **How to delete a course**

If you really, really need to delete a course, here’s how:

1. **You must first deactivate the course.** \
   Open the course’s Details panel and click Deactivate in the top right.
2. **Change the view in Courses from Active to Inactive using the drop-down on the right side of your screen.**
3. **Find the course you’d like to delete in the list of Inactive courses and click on it to open up the Course Details panel.**
4. **At the bottom of Course Details is a red DELETE COURSE button.** \
   Once you click it, you’ll be presented with one more dialog to confirm that you’d like to delete this course.
5. Click **Delete** to remove your course—as well as all included data generated from that course—from Content Controller.
