Simple Syllabus
Beginning in Fall 2025, a new process was implemented for managing course syllabi through Simple Syllabus.
For Students
If you experience any delays accessing Simple Syllabus within 24 hours of registering for a course, please contact the WilmU Help Desk by opening a support ticket for assistance.
For Instructors
Simple Syllabus was introduced as a centralized, template-driven platform that enables instructors to quickly personalize and publish syllabi directly in Canvas. It offers a more efficient workflow, eliminating the need for instructors to save and upload personalized syllabus files manually. Each Canvas course includeds a syllabus template outlining the core content. Instructors are required to update this syllabus each block or semester to personalize it.
These updates can be made directly through Simple Syllabus via Canvas to ensure compliance with the University's Course Readiness requirements.
