Posted on September 16, 2026August 27, 2026 by Susan HicksWebcourses@UCF Course Retention and Deletion Begins Dec. 17 This is a reminder that the Center for Distributed Learning will begin the first Webcourses@UCF course deletion cycle on Thursday, Dec. 17, 2026, as part of the university’s course retention and deletion process. Learn more by visiting the Webcourses@UCF Course Retention and Deletion Guide. This first deletion cycle will include academic courses taught from Summer 2012 through Fall 2020. After this initial deletion, rolling deletion cycles will occur at the end of each semester. Academic courses will be retained for six years, then removed from the system unless a retention request is submitted and approved. Please note: Non-academic, development, and professional development courses will be governed under separate guidelines coming in Summer 2027. Faculty are encouraged to review the Course Deletion List: Summer 2012–Fall 2020 to see which courses are currently flagged for deletion. Faculty who wish to save course content before deletion may export course content, download assignment submissions, and export grades from the Gradebook. To request that a course be retained, visit the Webcourses@UCF Course Retention and Deletion Guide and complete the Retention Request Form by Friday, November 20, 2026. If you have questions or need assistance, please contact Webcourses@UCF Support.
