Add Canvas course users via My Canvas Admin | Staff guide

Please note:
To add a Notetaker to a module raise a helpdesk ticket, include in the ticket a complete module code (example 7001ACADEM-202223-SEM1), their LJMU email address and specify the Notetaker role.

You can add Tutors and External Examiners to your module using this tool-you can also add *PGR students, who are teaching on your module as 'Tutors Assistants' or TA's. A more granular customised ‘Non-Teaching’ role has now been developed for EEs which allows them to:

• View All Grades
• View all students’ submissions and make comments on them
• View Announcements
• View Discussions
• View the group pages of all Student groups

Please do not attempt to add students including PGRs as Tutors since this could result in data breach.
