How to update the publication status of an individual course:

- Click the red cross symbol beside the relevant qualification outcome to expand its information, and scroll down the page to your listed course options.
- Click into the bulk actions drop-down list displayed on the right-hand side of your screen, and click the ‘Go’ button.
