Substitute Teacher Role

[BethanyR22]

What permissions does a substitute teacher have on Canvas? I cannot find this information anywhere. Thank you.

Hi @BethanyR22 -

There is not a standard Guest Teacher role in Canvas. Each school may elect to create one of their own, based on the role of Teacher or Observer. 

What user roles and permissions are available in Canvas? 

How do I add a course-level role in the Permissions page? 

While not an immediate solution, you may be interested in these ideas:
