What is the difference between course start date and course activation date?
• The course activation date is the date on which customers can access a course they have purchased within the online school (OLS). The course start date is the date on which the course begins. For all independent study courses, the course activation date is the same as the course start date. For teacher-supported courses in grades K through 8, the course activation date is 7 days prior to course start date, to allow students and learning coaches to become acquainted with the OLS. For teacher-supported high school courses, the course activation date is the same as the course start date, although student will have access to an orientation course 7 days before the course start date to help them become acquainted with the online learning platform.
