Simple Syllabus: Viewing the History of a Syllabus

Updated on Feb 20, 2026

An Approver can look at the "History" of a syllabus. Such as, when it was submitted for approval, approved, and/or rejected with comments.

The history of a syllabus can only be viewed when it is being reviewed. If it has been rejected it will return to the "Not Ready" column. It will not be available to the Approver until it is submitted again. If it has been approved it will be under the "Completed" column and the "History" will not be available.

1. Access the Syllabus

Use the Simple Syllabus: Accessing the Simple Syllabus Dashboard to guide you.

Select the "Review" button.
