How to transfer course content on Canvas to/from different Colleges?

[michaelschilf]

To the community,

I teach at two different colleges, and I want to import course content from one college's canvas to another. I was able to export content into a zip drive from one college's canvas course to my desktop and then import it to the other college's canvas course, but I can't figure out how to open the zip and move content to it's needed place. 

How do I open the new zip file and/or is there a better/easier way to copy course content from one College's Canvas Course to another course at another college?

Sincerely,

Michael Schilf

Hi,  @michaelschilf  Welcome to the Canvas Community! You'll first need to re-create the export as an .imscc file and then import it into the course at the other school. Instructions are in:
