While students will receive an email when their course teacher evaluations (CTEs) are available, instructors can also add a link in their course. This link allows students to launch directly into the evaluation site from within their respective course. To add this link, follow these steps:
Adding a link to CTE in existing Module
If you wish to add a direct link to the CTE service from a Brightsape Module choose Upload/Create then Create a link

Title the link and add the following URL: https://banner.cortland.edu/ssomanager/c/SSB?pkg=https://banner.cortland.edu/pls/prod/ctestudent.my_cte
Choose Create.
The link will be created, double check to make sure it is visible to students.
