How do I transfer ownership of a Canvas class?

This article is intended only for CommonLit customers and pilot partners with early access to Canvas this spring. Our Canvas integration will be available for purchase beginning in SY 22-23 as a part of our School Essentials PRO package. To learn more about School Essentials PRO, please head to: https://www.commonlit.org/en/school-essentials

You can transfer ownership to any teacher who is shared by Canvas. You will not be able to transfer ownership to teachers who manually joined your Canvas class.

To transfer ownership of a Canvas class, go to your My Classes > Manage Classes page.

On your Manage Classes page, click Options > Manage Coteachers.

On the Manage Teachers window, click the Make Owner link next to your co-teacher's name.
