Happy Holidays

As we enter the holiday season, we want to express how thankful we are for our Elevate Standards Alignment customers. We appreciate your business and wish each and every one of you happy holidays. We look forward to working with you towards a successful 2023.
We also would like to remind you that Instructure will be closed on December 23, 26 & January 2 for the Christmas and New Years holidays. We will also observe “dim the lights” December 27-30, so please be patient as response times might be longer than usual.
