CANVAS HELP FOR FACULTY
Canvas sites for official catalog courses are created automatically each term when released by the Registrar’s Office. An announcement will be made on the Canvas gateway page when they become available. Once created, you will see the sites on your Canvas Dashboard and in your Courses list. Please confirm your Canvas course sites before the start of each term and verify you have sites for all courses you are assigned to teach. If you do not see a course site, please check with your department scheduler to check official scheduling information.
