The shared courses appear similar to other courses on the listing page, one can differentiate by looking at the author.

![Collaborating on shared courses](https://docs.nexcess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Collaborating-on-shared-courses.png)Co-instructors can create new or edit existing lessons, topics, quizzes, and questions in a shared course and perform all other actions to configure course settings on the course edit page as the owner instructor can, but they are not allowed to trash the course.

Also, Co-instructors are not allowed to further share a shared course with other instructors.
