How do I accept an invitation to join a course as an observer?
Instructors invite observers to join their courses. By default, when you are added to a course, you will be able to view the course without having to accept a course invitation.
Note: If you do not receive an invitation to join the course, please contact the instructor.

Note: You will have to sign in to Canvas to accept the course invitation. If you don't have a Canvas account you'll be able to create one as part of the course invitation.
Complete Registration
If you need to set up an account, you will need to create a password [1], enter your time zone [2], and view the privacy policy [3]. Then click the Register button [4].
