Bio:
I’ve served in technologist roles in educational settings for the last 35 years. As Director of Academic Technologies I oversee all classroom technology implementations and faculty support. In 2012, we transitioned from three different learning management systems to Canvas. I was responsible for the content migration and supervising the continuing help desk support. I continue to be the primary admin and trainer for faculty, students, and staff and lead classroom and one on one sessions.

I think most schools have course expiration set to be triggered by terms, so I'd second Brian's @bneporadny suggestion to start with local admins. Keep in mind that when opened back up,...
I agree with Rick and James, if you have your terms set up correctly, its really easy to manage. We haven't deleted any of our courses since we moved to Canvas. Both for accreditation and our inte...
