Teaching Activities Updates

This update simplifies and organizes the Teaching Activities in Elements by reducing the number of activity types from 23 to 14. Users will not need to re-enter any data for this update because all data is automatically migrated to the new types. This is part of an ongoing simplification process designed to increase the quality and accuracy of our data.

To see more details about how specific types were migrated, please consult the chart below or click here for a downloadable chart. If you need assistance or have questions or concerns, please contact us or your liaison. You may also request support if needed.
