How do I import a course from a university Canvas platform to the free version?

Hello  @robin-young  Welcome to the Canvas Community.  Thank you for posting your question.  In order to do this, you'd need to export your content from one environment and then use the file you get to import into the FFT (Free For Teachers) environment.

• How do I export a Canvas course?
• How do I import a Canvas course export package?

You might want to also check with your school's Online Learning / eLearning department to see if the curriculum content you want to transfer to FFT is allowed or not.  Some schools may not allow that if they are already a paying customer.

I hope this helps, Robin.  Let Community members know if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
