To be in sync with University retention policies and to protect the Western community with additional data security, Canvas courses will be maintained for a six-year period. Courses older than six years will be archived and inaccessible to faculty and students. At this point, non-academic courses will not be archived.
For extenuating circumstances, instructors may request that a course not be immediately archived using the form below.
If needed, instructors always have the option to export their courses or course content to other resources. For more information, please see:
