Changes to TA role assignments in Canvas

Beginning Thursday, August 15, 2019, teaching assistants (TAs) who are the sole instructors of a course must be marked in PeopleSoft with the grade roster access field of ‘Grade’ or ‘Approve.’ This ensures TAs who are sole instructors have the appropriate level of access to enter grades and grant them the correct access in Canvas. TAs with grade or approve access will have the “Teacher” role in Canvas, which allows them to publish courses.

Please note: CCS grade “Access” for undergraduate TAs must be left blank. They are not allowed to enter or submit grades.
