Canvas Learning Management System

Most Delgado courses, including online and hybrid, are taught using Canvas, an online course management system. Instructors and students can use Canvas to share course materials, submit assignments, and communicate with each other. Whether you are taking courses online or on a Delgado campus, learning how to use Canvas will help you be successful in all of your college classes. Our Canvas Student Orientation (Passport) will help you.
