Canvas Transition Training for Instructors

From Instructional Technologies

Instructional Technologies is offering a series of five workshops to prepare instructors to begin teaching on Canvas in Summer and Fall 2023.

Workshops will be delivered as live, 90-minute webinars on Microsoft Teams. Each workshop will include hands-on homework assignments that instructors must complete on Canvas in order to receive credit for the workshop.

Requirements and sequencing

  • Workshops 1, 2 and 3 are required to gain access to your Summer and/or Fall courses on Canvas.
  • Workshop 1 is a pre-requisite for all other workshops and must be completed first.
  • Workshops 2, 3 and 4 may be taken in any order.
  • Workshop 5 should be taken last, after completing the required workshops (1, 2, and 3).

How to register

Note: Registration closes one hour before the workshop begins.

FAQ

Can I watch the webinar recordings instead of attending the live webinars?

  • Yes. By late March, we will have a process in place to allow those who want or need to complete the workshops by viewing recorded webinars to do so. Stay tuned!

I have experience teaching with Canvas -- am I required to complete the training?

  • We are working on a process to allow those with prior Canvas experience to by-pass required trainings by demonstrating their Canvas skills. We expect to have this in place by late March. Stay tuned for updates. And meanwhile, feel free to email canvashelp@durhamtech.edu to let us know your situation. And if you want to participate in the trainings, feel free!

Will this training be offered in Summer 2023?

  • Yes. The current schedule runs through late May. Later in Spring we will add more sessions for June and July.
