How do I remove people from my course?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@bronson_5 , if your permissions are set to allow this, you can click on the People tab and then on the gear icon next to the person's name you wish to remove; that will give you additional options, such as Remove from Course and Deactivate User. This is described in greater detail in How do I use the People page as an instructor?
If you do not see those options, it means the ability to remove or deactivate people from your course has been disabled at the account level. In that event, you will need to contact your school's Canvas admin to remove people. If your school has populated people in the course through their SIS, after you contact them, they will take the necessary steps to remove people as appropriate, or advise you of the procedure.

I see these options, but when clicking, nothing changes.
@M_J ...
I would suggest reaching out to the local Canvas administrators at Tilburg University...as they might be able to help you with enrollments on the "People" page of your Canvas course. I found this page on your school's website that has some contact information for you:
IT Support for students | Tilburg University
Hopefully they will be able to help get things sorted for you. Good luck!
