2. Click on the action link  and choose Categories



3. Check the list to determine if there are Categories you’d like to add
4. If you’d like to add new Categories, click Create Category



5. Give your new Category a Name and click Submit to save your changes
6. If you plan on using a Weighted Grade Column, assign each column in your Grade Center to a Category either through Manage > Organize Grade Center or through the Edit function in each column.
