Course Attribute Value Description
Course Attribute Value is the specific category of the Course Attribute by which it was categorized. For example, we categorize classes by the Course Level (Course Attribute) and the categories we assign to them are "Upper Division", "Lower Division", etc. (Course Attribute Values). Course Attribute Value filters on dashboards enable selection of all of the courses that have a specified attribute value.

As Courses can have multiple Course Attributes, they can also have multiple Course Attribute Values associated with them. Classes inherit Course Attributes and Course Attribute Values from the Course Catalog.

Course attributes are attached to courses on the Catalog Data page and to classes on the Basic Data page. Unlike requirement designations, course attributes do not transfer to PeopleSoft Academic Advisement."[1]
