The Staff Courses Import includes course section information taught by a particular staff person. Each line in the import represents one course section, which means a staff person may be listed multiple times.

If Year, School Number and Staff State ID exist, a new record for that staff person will be created and matched with the school and year. This import requires the District, School and Calendar fields to be populated in the Campus toolbar.
