I’m currently facilitating a course on Canvas in the US, and have to travel to NZ for a month. Will I be able to access my course by using a VPN?
Hi @PattiMorum,
I would say that in general, Canvas should work in New Zealand right now. Instructure generally follows United States regulations, see Which countries are restricted from using Canvas? - Instructure Community . I wouldn't think a VPN would be required either, unless your school's login system has that requirement. With both of these things being said, it's hard to guarantee access since a number of different factors could come in to play. if you know anyone in the location you're traveling to, you could perhaps have them try to access your Canvas site to see if they can at least get a login screen.
Hope this helps. Safe travels on your trip!

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
We have recently encountered an issue where two students were unable to see the "Take the Quiz" button. These students were taking different exams for different courses within our Testing Center. Both exams required Respondus LockDown Browser and were restricted to specific IP addresses. In both cases, the students were…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
