logging into canvas (SSO)
Starting July 15th 2024, Canvas will begin using the District’s single sign on (SSO).
SSO means that students will be able to use their SDCCD Email to sign into Canvas. SSO is part of a multi-phase ITS implementation project to streamline technology integrations and to strengthen cyber security for students, faculty, and staff.
Review our video guide on how to access Canvas through your mySDCCD apps by logging in through SSO.
