All faculty must be certified to use Canvas at De Anza College.
By completing Canvas Certification Training, you will be certified to use Canvas for online, hybrid or face-to-face classes.
Your Canvas account will be created when you sign up for a Module 2 workshop and you will receive an email with instructions. Upon completion of Module 3, you will be prompted to sign up for your Module 4 workshop.
Certification training is divided into four parts:
- Module 1 - 1 hour, online/self-paced
- Module 2 - 2 hours, workshop/webinar
- Module 3 - 3 hours, online/self-paced
- Module 4 - 1 hour, workshop/webinar
Module 2
If you are new to Canvas, this is where you start. After you sign up for Module 2, you will receive a first email within a few days giving you access to Canvas and our online Certification Training course. There you will read through Module 1 and complete the activities at the end of Module 1 on your own before attending the Module 2 workshop via Zoom.
You will receive a second email within a day or two of the Module 2 workshop you choose with the Zoom link.
