Also referred to as My Planner and Wish List.

The course planner is a student tool to help organize future classes.  The enrollment shopping cart can be only be used per term, but the course planner is just a list of all courses. 

This might be used after a student visits with this counselor to determine what classes they must take to satisfy the requirements for a specific degree or certificate.  The student can then enter all of the suggest courses in their course planner in order to track them all in one place and compare and track their enrollment courses against the full list of courses.

There are multiple ways that the student can use to navigate to the course planner. 

They may start from the main Student Self Service screen as shown below and then use the main menu bar to navigate to the course planner.

By clicking on the Self Service heading in the main menu bar, the following information is displayed.

Click on the My Planner link in the Academic Planning section

The following screen will display.  In this example, the planner is empty.

Also, the My Planner section can be retrieved by going to the Academics section of the main Student Self Service screen as seen below. The Academic Planner is the option on the drop down menu for My Planner.

To browse for courses in the Planner, click on the “browse course catalog" sub-menu tab, as shown below. A course list search can be performed alphabetically.  In this example, the courses are displayed.

Let us suppose that this student is a business major and must take accounting courses.  To view the detailed accounting courses that are offered at LBCC, the ACCTG link can be clicked. 

The detailed list of accounting courses is displayed.  Because this a course planner, the course description can be viewed by clicking on the Course Title, but no specific schedule information will be displayed.  This is a planning tool for students. 

To add courses to the planner, the select box is checked and then the “Add to Planner" button is clicked.  In the example below, two accounting courses are added to the planner.

A confirmation message will be displayed.  These courses are now in the planner.  They are not in the enrollment shopping cart. 

The student may add additional courses.  In this example, they will add a Management course.

When the student views the My Planner course list, they will now see three courses. 

They may use the Planner to organize their courses by term.  For example, suppose that the student wishes, if possible, to take the Management course in the Spring of 2011.  The MGMT 49A box is checked and Spring 2011 is selected from the Term drop down box.  Then the "Move" button is clicked.

A confirmation message is displayed. 

Now when the student views their entire course list, the MGT course is listed in section entitled 2011 Spring, as shown below.
