Adding Student TAs to Canvas Courses

If you’ve been authorized to have a TA in one of your courses, please complete the “Onboarding a TA” form (available in Falconlink). This new form ensures that the TA is oriented to privacy issues, is approved by your department chair, and is added to your Canvas course in the appropriate way.
