Generally, course roles are added by Course Section Managers via Workday, as described in the Section Roles in Workday and Canvas diagram. The Course Section Manager links the individual to the course section in Workday in one of five roles:
- Instructor
- Graduate Student Course Support
- Undergraduate Student Course Support
- Course Coordinator and Grader
- Mentor
After the assignment of the person to the course section in Workday, the role will flow through to Canvas within 24 hours. Contact your Course Section Manager or School Registrar to add the person to your course in Workday.
If it is impossible to add a person to a course section in Workday, two Canvas-only roles are available. Complete the form linked below, but please note: this form is not used to request any of the five roles listed above. All requests pertaining to those five roles must go to the appropriate Course Section Manager or School Registrar. Click here to determine how to add someone to your course in a Canvas-only role.
