Hello Community friends!

This blog has been updated with some new information based on the high level of interest and participation in our first free webinar session. We love seeing all the interest, but in order to maintain an environment for Q&A in the sessions, we have had to set a cap of 250 participants. With so much interest, we have also added an additional Templates and Blueprints for Canvas Admins webinar session scheduled for May 6, 2024. 

Check out the updates and happy learning!
