How Do I Add A Class?

CoderZ Classes are only available to teachers, to help manage the learning process of their students. Once you set up a class, you can invite students to join it, assign courses and monitor your students' progress with ease and style. 

There are two options available to create a class:

Creating a new class in the CoderZ platform
Importing an existing class from a roster server (US clients only)
