- Course restore - Allows taking all or parts of a course backup and adding it to an existing course or creating a new course.
- Import course/activity - Allows a teacher to go to another course they teach and import elements into the current course. Similar to a Backup and Restore, except it is one process.

There are other ways to share your course beside the above:
