How do I sync a Mastery Connect tracker in a Canvas course?

If your institution uses Canvas LMS, you can link a Mastery Tracker to a Canvas course. Trackers can be linked to single Canvas courses as well as cross-listed courses with multiple sections. Once this connection is made, you will have access to the Mastery Tracker in your Canvas course.

If you edit your Mastery Tracker or your Canvas course, your tracker and course automatically syncs overnight. If your tracker and course need to sync immediately, you can sync them manually.
