GeriaLearning courses are hosted in the University of Iowa’s online course system, Canvas Learn. The first time you access a course in Canvas Learn, you will need to create an account. When you click on the name of a course, you will be taken to a page with a box that asks for your name and e-mail address. Complete those two fields and click “Enroll in Course.” This will create your Canvas Learn account and take you to the course. Once you have a Canvas Learn account, you can sign in to access other courses and see your course “dashboard,” which tracks courses you are currently working through, as well as courses you have completed.

For step-by-step instructions, see Registering in Canvas Learn and Enrolling in a Course by clicking here.
