  "updated": "2023-06-22T09:15:30Z",

## Best Practices

1. **UUID Format**: Use valid UUID v4 format for course\_id
2. **Data Consistency**: Ensure consistent data across all course records
3. **Naming**: Use the official course name as it appears in the institution's catalog
4. **Soft Deletion**: Use the is\_deleted flag instead of permanently removing records
