Canvas Catalog Guide

How do I set measurement options in a catalog?

As a Canvas Catalog admin, you can set a measurement type to apply to all listings in a catalog and its subcatalogs. The measurement option specifies the type of credit that a user receives upon completion of a catalog course. Available options include credits, points, and CEUs.

Users can view the selected measurement in Catalog listings, their Student Dashboard, and transcripts.

Note: The default measurement options are inherited from the parent, but a subcatalog can set a different measurement option.
