The Center for Integrated Professional Development will begin using a new registration system for workshops and events starting in November of 2023. The new service utilizes Campus Solutions, the same system used by faculty and staff to submit timesheets, check vacation time, and more.
Users will notice a substantial visual difference between the “classic” registration system and the new one. In addition, when registering from off campus locations, users may be asked to complete Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
Users can see what they have previously registered for and cancel registrations by logging in to this tracking page.
If you have questions about the content of a workshop or need an accommodation to fully participate, please email ProDev@ilstu.edu. If you receive an error message while attempting to register, please contact the Technology Support Center.

You can record videos once and embed them into multiple courses. You can add test questions to videos to make gradable assignments and automatically add closed captions. You can create videos for teaching, assignments, assessment, and feedback. Canvas Studio will report who watched your videos and for how long. Your students also have Canvas Studio, so you can create assignments where students record and submit videos to you. Registration is required.
