How to use the spreadsheet when updating the local begin date    
A course's start date and the end date are local dates, which mean that community colleges can enter their own dates here. Colleges may use the start date field to indicate the term that the college first begin offering this specific course version. Likewise, the end date should reflect the last term that the specific course version was taught at the college when that course version is no longer being taught.

Option to match the System Office's (SO) start date. Community colleges may opt to match their local begin date to the SO begin date to keep confusion low. If so, just find the begin date on this spreadsheet, then go into CRSE screen and change the begin date.

Note: The SO begin date is a 6-digit date that corresponds to the course's effective term:

Spring = early January
Summer = mid May
Fall = mid August
