At the beginning of the academic year, you are enrolled via the student information system on to all of your courses for the coming year. These are pushed through to Canvas where you can connect with your course online and enhance your learning experience.
Can't find a particular course?
Try checking the Courses section, to see a list of all your courses, click on the Courses section, and then click All Courses. Please note if you have a few enrolments you will need to scroll down to bottom to find the All Courses button.
Once you are in the All courses page you will be able to see all your course enrolments and if a course is published. If the course is not published please speak to a tutor.
If you still can't find the course you are looking for; check with your School Office, Admin Team or Tutor to see if you are fully enrolled. Staff in the Library will also be able to assist with your query.
If you can access your course, but can't find particular content or an assignment link - check with your tutor as they are responsible for updating your course content.
