To the extent that it is copyrightable, it will be protected automatically; there is no need to take any further action.

Whether it is copyrightable or not depends on the type of content. For example, a list of dates and topics to be discussed may not be considered sufficiently creative, and a simple bibliography would not be copyrightable either. However, a detailed, annotated bibliography might be.

Also, if you wrote the course as part of your responsibilities as an educator, for example, it could be considered a work-made-for-hire of your employer, in which case you would not be able to retain the copyright.
