About Curriculum Workflows

All course additions, deletions and modifications have a predefined reviewer workflow: a sequential chain of users, assigned to roles, who are required to review and approve requests each academic year.

Workflows for course requests typically start with a faculty member, proceed to the department chair or program director, and receive final approval by the dean who oversees curricula for that college, school or program. Each college, school and program has its own unique curriculum workflow that is separate from its catalog workflow.

If you have questions about your curriculum workflow(s), contact the Office of the Registrar at academicrequests@colorado.edu.

Workflow Actions

To check the progress of your course proposal or revision:​

  1. Log in to .​
  2. Use the Search box to find your course, then click on the course title.​ The course form will display below the course table.
  3. To the right of the form, you'll see two blocks:
    • The In Workflow block lists each step in the approval workflow. Completed steps are green, in-progress steps are orange, and incomplete steps are gray. If you hover over a step, the approvers' email addresses will appear in the lower left of your browser window.
    • The Approval Path block lists the approver's name and the date and time of their approval.

About Catalog Page Workflows

Every catalog page has a predefined reviewer workflow: a sequential chain of users, assigned to roles, who are required to review and approve the page during the annual catalog production cycle each academic year.

Workflows for academic programs pages typically start with an administrative staff member, proceed to the department chair or program director, and receive final approval by the dean who oversees curricula for that college, school or program.

If you have questions about your catalog workflow(s), contact the catalog team at catalog@colorado.edu.
