Before Canvas Courses can be linked to Wisenet Course Offers or Unit Offers, the Elearning Integration must be setup correctly.

This ensures that all Canvas Courses can sync to Wisenet and that any changes continue to sync successfully. If you haven’t done so already, please follow the steps in this article – Canvas Connected App Set Up Process 

Before you begin:

1. Ensure you read all the steps in this article
2. Create the Course Offers and Unit Offers in Wisenet
3. Understand the field name references between Wisenet and Canvas.
   • Canvas Course Name = Wisenet Course Name
   • Canvas Course Code = Wisenet Elearning Course Code
   • Canvas Course SIS ID = Wisenet Elearning Ref

Section

This is optional but a great feature to use to section Elearning Enrolments in Canvas. For example, you can section your Elearning Enrolments by Training Location, Start & End Dates, etc. The defined Section value will be synced to Canvas for the specific Elearning Course and any Enrolments will be added as a member of this section.

This eliminates a lot of manual section management.

Options:
Set a Section: Type the name of the Section in the text box. It’s best to keep Section names succinct. Section names can be duplicated across Courses.
No Sections: Leave the group text box empty.
