Step Three: Select the Name of the Instructor that is currently assigned to the section you would like to update, then click “Refresh”. Once their courses populate, select the section you would like to reassign using the checkboxes on the left. Then, choose the instructor that you would like to take over the course on the right-hand side. Finally, select the arrow in the middle that says “Reassign Selected Sections”.

 

Ex: Reassigning Course No 1002 Section No 001 From “Placeholder” to “Adjunct, 3-credit”

To note, reassigning sections is a great tool to use when sections are assigned to a placeholder in the department and need to be moved to a different GA. Similarly, if a GA is no longer in the department for any reason and their sections need to be moved, they can quickly be seen and updated within BMS to the correct GA.
