+.. note:: Before you re-run a course, make sure that its settings and content
+  are complete. Additions and changes that you make to the original course
+  after you create the new course have no effect on the new course.
 
+Only global or system administrators have the permissions needed to re-run
+a course. To re-run a course, contact your system administrator. After your
+system administrator creates a new course using the re-run feature, you can
+complete the steps to :ref:`update the new course<Update the New Course>`.
 
+To re-run a course, users who have the required permissions follow these
+steps.
 
+#. Sign in to Studio. Your dashboard lists the courses that you have access to as a course team member.
+
+#. Move your cursor over each row in the list of courses. The **Re-Run Course** and **View Live** options appear for each course.
+
+#. Locate the course you want to re-run and select **Re-Run Course**. The **Create a re-run of a course** page opens with values already supplied in the **Course Name**, **Organization**, and **Course Number** fields.
+
+#. In the **Course Run** field, indicate when the new course will be offered.
+
+  Together, the course number, the organization, and the course run are used
+  to create the URL for the new course. The combination of these three
+  values must be unique for the new course. In addition, the total number of
+  characters used for the name, organization, number, and run must be 65 or
+  fewer.
+
+#. Select **Create Re-Run**. Your **My Courses** dashboard opens with a status message about the course creation process.
+
+  Duplication of the course structure and content takes several minutes. You
+  can work in other parts of Studio or in the LMS, or on other web sites,
+  while the process runs. The new course appears on your **My Courses**
+  dashboard in Studio when configuration is complete.
