Block creation of new courses on the education extension
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As mentioned in related tasks, in the interim period between removal of the extension from the wikis and transitioning to the Programs and Events Dashboard for cohort tracking, we could stop the creation of new courses on wikis. This will aid in the transition, while still allowing users to access previous courses and finish ongoing courses.

This would happen after communication with each wiki (see T187577) and the agreed upon timeline.

If we were going to do this, we should've done it ages ago. We're past the deadline to remove it... Declining

Actually. We might need to do this while the extension stays around for archiving data and stuff...
