What is Canvas?

Canvas is the Learning Management System (LMS) currently in use for all classes at PLNU. This includes undergraduate, graduate, and degree completion programs. Canvas can be used for any type of course offering (i.e. face-to-face, online, and hybrid courses). We strongly encourage all instructors to take advantage of the Canvas platform if they are not already doing so.
