Tip

Canvas Q&A Sessions (on Zoom) are offered daily!

Available to register for on the LTS Training Calendar.

Daily: Canvas Q&A Sessions

These Sessions are the equivalent of a “Canvas Consultation” with a member of LTS.
They are first-come-first-serve, although we are often able to break up support sessions into private Zoom-breakout rooms.
These Sessions begin at various times throughout the week in an attempt to accommodate different schedules. (Please email LTS@boisestate.edu to request a separate consultation appointment if the scheduled times don’t work for you.)
To view the available sessions check out the LTS Training Calendar. (*Please note, LTS is closed on the weekends and University Holidays.)
