Editing your organization's page
There are many options for customizing your organization's page. You can adjust these settings by accessing the Organization dashboard from your Canvas Badges/Credentials menu. Please review and update your organization information by following these steps.
- Sign in to your Canvas Badges/Credentials account.
- Select the Canvas Badges/Credentials logo in the upper left, and select your organization from the drop-down menu to navigate to your organization's space.

3. Navigate to the Dashboard.
4. Access the ellipsis button and select Edit organization.

5. From here you can edit your public profile, content settings and the welcome page.
Public profile
This is where you begin choosing how your users will navigate and view your organization space. Under public profile, you can update your logo, set a name for your page, select a URL to direct users to and provide a contact email. The checkbox marked "Redirect to org public page" means users attempting to view your Canvas Badges/Credentials organization page, who either do not have an account or are not logged in, will be redirected to your website URL instead of http://info.badgr.com/. This helps keep learners focused on your organization.
