Canvas is the University's virtual learning environment (VLE). Canvas will be your main source of information for your studies throughout your Presessional English programme.
Accessing Canvas
Once you have completed Online Registration, you will be able to access University systems and services, including Canvas. You should use the same username and password that you used to complete Online Registration for accessing Canvas, your University email account and the student intranet.
You will be invited to join the team for an Induction and Welcome event, where you will find out all you need to know about your course, learn about how the University will support you and practise using the learning platforms. This will help you to make the most of your course from day one.

Presessional Canvas course
When you visit Canvas, you should be automatically enrolled onto your Presessional Canvas course. On the Presessional Canvas course you will find everything you need to know about your course. This includes your teaching and learning schedule, your assignments, and any quizzes or announcements from your tutor. You will also be able to view the Presessional Student Handbook and your course handbooks.
All talks during induction and welcome will be published on your Canvas course, for you to watch again or catch up on, if you are unable to attend.
You will find more information about teaching and assessment on the Presessional English Programme and a sample teaching timetable on our Course Finder pages.
