Badging: Self-Enrollment in a Canvas Badging Course

Our St. Thomas Badgr digital badges are anchored in Canvas (LMS) courses. Many of our digital badges are of the self-enroll type. This article explains how to self-enroll in a Canvas Badging course and how to un-enroll from a Canvas badging course that you were manually added to.

How to Self-Enroll in a Badge 

To self-enroll in the badge, check out the Current Badge Offerings available on the One St.Thomas badging site. 

• Once you identify the badge you want to earn, click the self-enroll link listed at the bottom of the badge description. This link will take you to the Canvas course associated with the badge. 

• Next, select Enroll in Course

• On the confirmation screen select "Go to the Course" or "Go to your Dashboard" 

• Note: If you are having trouble with the self-enroll link, try copying and pasting the link in a new browser tab or new window.

How to Un-Enroll

You can only un-enroll from courses that you self-enrolled in. You cannot un-enroll from courses that you were automatically fed into (such as courses for academic credit). 

• In the sidebar on the right side of your screen, select Drop this Course.

• Again, select Drop this Course to confirm un-enrollment

• Note: your digital badge remains in your Badgr Backpack even if you un-enroll from the badging Canvas course.
