How do I use LearnPlatform as a provider?

[#1]

As a product provider, you can access LearnPlatform through your EdCo Partner Portal and manage key details about your product(s) featured across Instructure. The Partner Portal houses product listings that serve as a central resource feeding for the following:

• Canvas Apps Page: Centralized hub of LTI integrated tools within Canvas LMS containing specific product details and LTI configuration information, where Canvas admins can discover, install, manage, and monitor LTI tools.
• LearnCommunity Library: Product library available to LearnPlatform customers and any educator who has created a free LearnPlatform account that contains specific product details and LTI configuration information.
• The Edtech Collective Marketplace: Public-facing directory of LTI integrated tools where anyone can discover and request information about listed tools if the partner has enabled lead generation. Access https://apps.instructure.com/.

Education institutions access these resources daily to curate their individual product libraries, discover and install tools, and make purchasing decisions on new products.
