Sections on CodeHS can be co-taught by multiple teachers. Co-teachers will have the ability to view and grade student work. They will also have administrative privileges over the Section. You can also collaborate on a course with other teachers using Teacher Permissions. Sharing a course gives teachers the ability to view, edit, or use your course assignments for their own sections, but will not give them access to student work in your section.

💡 If you have a Pro Starter License, your sections may have a teacher limit. See Plan Information for more detail and reach out to your Customer Success Manager or support@codehs.com if you have any questions.
