In ASAP, classes roll-up to courses. A course is the subject matter (title, description, curriculum) and a class is an instance of the course (the time period, the dates, the times, the instructors, and the locations of the course). One course can have many classes.

You can create a class from the courses listing page, or from the classes listing page.

Prerequisite: The course is created.
