Content Syndication

Course Catalogue content syndication allows academic units to pull course and program information from the automatically. This helps ensure academic information remains accurate and consistent across 91µ¼º½ÊÓÆµ websites and can automatically reflect course and program changes shortly after they are applied.

This functionality is required when conveying course or program information on any 91µ¼º½ÊÓÆµ. By inserting a short code into your website content, you can reflect nearly any Course Catalogue content onto your page. This code—known as a 'short-tag'—remains the same year after year and will automatically update to reflect changes in the Course Catalogue. This saves departments and web managers resources, as short-tags will always reflect the current official version without any action required from web editors.

You may find a specific short-tag by locating your desired page on the Course Catalogue, or by cataloguesupport.es [at] mcgill.ca (contacting the Course Catalogue team).

Please refer to the examples below for instructions and information. Further details are also available in the following .
