In this workshop we’ll share the journey of Northeastern University’s adoption of Canvas Credentials Pathways, highlighting the key factors that prompted our decision.

Success isn’t just about collecting data—it’s about using it effectively. Oscar Smith Middle School exemplifies this by leveraging Mastery Connect, Canvas, and Impact to transform Professional Learning Communities (PLCs), personalize instruction, and improve test scores, achieving state accreditation.

Join us as we soar high to take a birds-eye view of how we redesigned our professional development program (Soaring with Online Learning) for flexibility to meet the needs of all university faculty (even those teaching in-person) by offering courses in Canvas Catalog and awarding stacked micro-credentials through learning pathways in Canvas Credentials.

This session explores strategic approaches to utilizing the Canvas ecosystem to enhance professional development programs. The discussion will cover successful marketing strategies that have broadened participant engagement and expanded reach beyond traditional boundaries.

This session will explore the use of Canvas for Continuing Education Courses, focusing on Canvas Catalog, Credentials, and Outcomes. Learn how to manage one comprehensive Canvas course segmented by grading terms, track outcomes for skills badging, and ensure faculty training for rubric tracking.

Canvas Credentials provides a powerful badging platform, but some critical data points remain inaccessible through traditional APIs and exports. This session will explore how Selenium, a browser automation tool, can be leveraged to extract hidden data and generate meaningful reports that would otherwise be difficult to obtain.

As workforce training and professional certification evolve, continuing educational institutions and career training providers must leverage the right tools to stay ahead. This session will equip you with practical strategies to maximize Canvas, Catalog, and Credentials to enhance continued education, professional training, and certification programs.

Change is hard. Rolling out new campus-wide policies doesn’t have to be an uphill battle. This session shares smart, practical strategies for implementing and revising digital badging policies in higher ed with less resistance and confusion.

The California State University (CSU) system has taken a bold step in revolutionizing its professional development programs by integrating Canvas LMS with Canvas Credentials.

Georgia Tech will share the experience of performing an exhaustive audit of digital credentials usage, suppliers, and platforms, and how a small group of stakeholders recommended an enterprise-scaled platform, Canvas Credentials in just four months

Not every learner’s path is linear—and today’s institutions are meeting students where they are, whether that’s through targeted offerings or through flexible, credentialed, and workforce-aligned programs. I’m excited to walk you through how Canvas, Catalog, and Canvas Credentials can come together to support the full learner journey, from registration to real-world recognition.

I’ve always believed in scaling technologies that help people advocate for themselves. And it’s not just any tech - it’s edtech. That’s why Instructure’s motto, “doing well while doing good,” resonates so deeply with me. How lucky are we to be part of this mission? In this session, I’ll show you what that looks like in practice, through two powerful examples from Elon University and Florida Gulf Coast University.
