Canvas Organizations

What is a Canvas Organization?

A Canvas Organization serves as a platform for fostering a persistent online community within our Canvas Learning Management System (LMS), distinct from the time-bound nature of traditional Canvas courses tied to specific terms. It provides a space for department leaders, program chairs, and club advisors to interact with our diverse community of students, faculty, and staff, facilitating ongoing communication, collaboration, and support.

In contrast to Canvas courses, which are automatically generated through our Student Information System (SIS)-driven process, Canvas Organizations are manually created by our Ed Tech Systems team upon request via the Canvas Organization Request form. This hands-on approach ensures flexibility in managing enrollments and proper categorization, while maintaining alignment with departmental needs.

Faculty Org Leaders, designated staff members within Canvas Organizations, are pivotal in managing user access and engagement. They have permissions similar to those of Teacher users in standard courses, enabling them to oversee assignments, content, discussions, and announcements.

Although Canvas courses streamline enrollment through an automated process, Canvas Organizations rely on manual intervention for user additions and removals. This manual oversight, handled by Faculty Org Leaders, ensures that user access remains tailored to the specific needs of each department or student club/association.
