Create the non-NUS user accounts

First, create the non-NUS user accounts, if you have not already done so.

Add the created non-NUS user accounts to the course

Once created:

Expand
titleDo not DO NOT use the Email option to add the newly-created users.

The default method to add users to a course in Canvas (using email address) will not work for the newly-created accounts.

This is because the non-NUS user(s) need to have activated their Canvas account before you can add them.

You will encounter this error message, that Canvas cannot find the user's email address.

...

The non-NUS users should appear in People in your course.

Non-NUS account expiry

  1. Non-NUS accounts will be deactivated if there have been no log-ins to the respective accounts for four months.

  2. If the email address of a deactivated account is added via the User Access Creation (UAC) form, the account will be reactivated.

    1. The re-activated user will not receive a notification that their account has been reactivated. They have to reset their password, if they have forgotten.
