Please Note Until QUEST has fully registered you as the instructor of a course, you won’t be able to attach those courses to your outline. It’s recommended that instructors wait for QUEST to be populated with instructors before getting started with Outline.

If you’re interested in starting early for the next term before QUEST is fully populated, check out this FAQ item for some tips!
