How can I combine multiple sections of the same class into one course shell?

Last updated on August 13, 2025

Shells can be issued to include more than a single section of a Canvas course. This can be useful when teaching multiple synchronous or asynchronous sections of a single course. Multi-section shells must be requested by the department before shells are issued for the next semester. They cannot be retroactively combined. Please reach out to your department chair for more information.
