\uD83D\uDCD8 Instructions
In OnCourse backup your course and then download the backup file to your computer.
Follow the Course Backup directions to complete this step.
**NOTE** When making the backup uncheck “Include enrolled users” from the Backup Settings. Users and user data will not migrate and this information can make the file too large to migrate on your own.
If the backup file is larger then 2GB this import process will not work. Contact Online Learning at OLL@fredonia.edu for assistance.
In FREDLearn open the course shell you would like to import the course content into.
If you do not currently have a course shell for the backed up file, the file should be stored. The campus provides a variety of storage options for these files.

On the Course Administration screen choose the Import/Export/Copy Components link under Site Resources.
Select “Import Components” option and press Start.
Press the Upload button and locate the OnCourse backup you have created and press Open.
Click the Import All Components button to begin the import.
Once the content is imported review each item and make any necessary adjustments.
