Looking for a Canvas Ninja who can help me get up and running

[KevinBasik]

I'm doing a course with just 35 students (adults), and I'm new to Canvas and LMS as a whole.  I've got my HR person looking for someone with Canvas experience who can help create a professional-looking platform and advise our design and use through Dec.   Because it's a small project, we've been advised to use Canvas Free for Teachers.

Honestly, I'm sure it's not a complex course (2 virtual modules, and 3 one-day sessions), but I don't have the bandwidth to get up to speed on the platform.

It's a temporary project/gig for an amazing, inspirational organization, so I'm looking for where to go to hire a Canvas rock star.

Any guidance?

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

I've been using Canvas to deliver my courses for 5 years now at a University.  I have spent many hours on the phone and chat with Canvas support learning how to improve my courses.  I know the platform really well.  I'd be happy to talk more about what you're hoping to do with this course to see if it's a good fit.

Best,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

I would be interested in chatting with you to see if things will work for us. I am interested in learning Canvas "short-cuts" and any automations. I know the very basics of Canvas, but wish to learn more.

Looks like you're getting some great help here already!  Thanks for those who have already offered to work with you!  I thought I'd mention a set of video tutorials created by Ashlee Espinosa out on YouTube.  They are a great resource, and you might want to at least bookmark them in your favorite web browser so you can come back to them at a later time.  Here's a link for you:

Hope this will help a bit!
