-==Adding course categories==
-By default, there is only one Moodle course category: Miscellaneous. A course creator or administrator can put all courses in the miscellaneous category.  However, teachers and students will find it easier to find their classes if they are organized in descriptive categories.
-Most people organize their courses by department and college or by topic. Be sure to test the organizational scheme with a few users before entering a large number of courses, to save time in moving them later.
-Adding categories is very simple:
-#From the [[Site administration block|Site Administration block]], click Courses then "Add/edit courses".
-#At the top of the "Course Categories" page is a text area and an "Add new category" button. Type the name of your new category in the text area and click the button.
-===Adding  sub course categories===
-Course sub-categories may be created by adding a new course category then using the "move category to" drop-down menu to move the category inside another category. Similarly, sub-sub-categories etc. may be created.
