View Listings

Canvas Catalog markets courses and programs that an institution adds to their account. Account listings can be branded with an organization's name, logo, and domain, and accounts fully support custom JavaScript (JS) and cascading style sheets (CSS). Institutions can also create subcatalog listings that are branded to a specific department, organization, or team.

An institution's catalog is always public facing, even if students are not logged in. However, institutions can manage the visibility of each listing in their catalog.

Note: An institution's Catalog Listings page cannot automatically narrow displayed listings to recommend courses to specific students.

Manage Account

Within a Canvas Catalog account, institutions can manage all course and program listings, manage catalogs, create promotional codes for paid listings, view account reports, and access the API.

Add Certificates

Institutions can also add certificates, which are automatically issued upon student course or program completion. No extra paperwork is involved. Certificates can be set to a default template or designed with custom with HTML/CSS.
