Each course in this system represents one running of a course. For example, the League holds the Municipal Leadership Academy Part 1 every two years, at 6 locations - so in this system, they would create 6 courses (one for each location). Then in two more years they would create 6 more courses (again, one per location). To make it clear which is which, the course title should include the location, such as "Municipal Leadership Academy 2006 Part 1 (Ames)".
The intention behind this is that attendance records are associated with one offering of a course, so it can be determined which site a candidate attended. Further, each course has a date and time offered field, and this is likely to differ with each site, so this ensures that the date and time recorded applies only to one course.
A side-effect of this system is that if you offer a workshop at many locations annually, you will have a lot of courses in this system - that is expected. Do not simply go back and edit your courses from last year to change the title to another year - you must create a new course for every running of your workshop.
