The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
As an instructor, how do I join the course of another instructor? I have the passcode to join, but I am not sure how to do so.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Neil,
Welcome to the community!
It looks like you are using Canvas Free for Teacher. If that is the case, the join code you have is probably intended to allow people to join the course as a student. If you need access as an instructor, someone with instructor level rights or above in the course will need to send you a course invitation via email, initiated from the People area of the course. Does that make sense?
