How do I use the Training Services Portal as an admin?

As an admin, you can access the Training Services Portal to complete self-paced training resources on a variety of Canvas topics. If your institution has a paid training subscription, you may also have access to live trainings and webinars.

Notes:

  • The Training Services Portal is only available to admin-, instructor-, and designer-based roles or users without an assigned role.
  • The Training Services Portal is only available to institutions in North America. Canadian institutions should contact their Customer Success Manager for information on participation.
  • For assistance updating your Training Services Portal, contact your Customer Success Manager. 
  • If the Training Services Portal link does not display in your Help menu, you must enable it in account settings.
