Is it possible to schedule a conference for Canvas groups?

Hi, Kerrie,

If you're referring to creating a conference for a group of people (multiple people in a course), yes you can do that following these instructions: How do I create a conference in a course? When creating a conference in a course, you can invite all course users or you can invite specific users.

If you're referring to Groups in Canvas, you can set up conferences for students within an individual group. You can either create a group set and assign students to groups (see the majority of the Groups lessons in the Canvas Instructor Guide for details), or you can allow students to create their own groups (see How do I allow students to create their own student groups?). In either case, you can create conferences for students in each group, or, once a student joins a group, students can create their own conferences: How do I create a conference in a student group? 

I hope of those "group" explanations helps you out!
