While you can delete individual items from a Canvas course, you may want to delete everything in the course at once. This usually happens when a mistake is made while copying the course, the wrong material is imported, or your sandbox courses have become out of date and unwieldy. Deleting a course is not something instructors can do on their own. You can request that ITS reset your Canvas shell by using the Canvas Course Reset ticket.
