Deleting a session is a simple process designed to help instructors and admins maintain an organized and up-to-date course environment. You may need to delete a session if it was created in error, is no longer relevant, or to remove outdated/duplicate sessions from your platform. Deleting sessions can also help declutter the session list, ensure that only active and necessary sessions are visible, and prevent confusion for both instructors & learners.

Additionally, removing unnecessary sessions can improve platform efficiency and data management. However, it’s important to note that deleting a session is permanent and may remove associated data such as enrollments & attendance records, so it should be done with caution. Always review the session details before confirming deletion to avoid accidental loss of important information.

Through the following documentation, we will guide you through the step-by-step process on how you can delete a particular session in your organization’s learning platform.
