Canvas LMS & LTI 1.3 integration
Yes, for launch. Canvas and other LTI 1.3 platforms can launch Personal Academy courses, and Deep Linking lets an instructor pick the course from inside Canvas. A Personal Academy lesson can also launch an external LTI 1.3 tool. Grade return (AGS) and roster sync (NRPS) are not offered yet, so scores stay in Personal Academy. It suits universities and training providers already on Canvas.
