Further education
One learning ecosystem for modern further education.
FE delivery is complex, with vocational programmes, apprenticeships, blended learning, and multiple systems. Canvas brings learning into one consistent hub so learners stay engaged, staff spend less time managing tools, and leaders can scale a reliable experience across the organisation.
Vocational and work-based learning
Capture learning in the classroom and evidence in the workplace.
Canvas supports the realities of FE delivery, from workshops and labs to placements and apprenticeships. With an integrated portfolio, learners can collect and organise work-based evidence alongside their learning, which makes progress clearer for learners, tutors, and assessors, without creating extra admin.
Employability pathways
Make skills visible with verified digital badges.
Help learners show what they can do, not just what they’ve completed. With Parchment Digital Badges, you can recognise achievement, support progression, and share trusted credentials with employers—strengthening partnerships and outcomes.
Continuing education and career readiness
Grow short courses that employers will pay for. Move faster from idea to delivery, prove skills with credentials, and track who progresses into jobs or further study.
Credentialing
Recognise real-world skills with secure, shareable digital credentials. Support employability, meet employer expectations, and evidence outcomes beyond the classroom.
Teaching and learning
Deliver consistent, high-quality learning across classroom, online, and apprenticeship delivery. Give educators simple tools that reduce admin and keep teaching at the centre.
Competency based education
Align learning to skills, not just seat time. Track progress against competencies, support flexible pathways, and ensure learners are job-ready.
Data and insights
Turn data into action. Identify learners who need support earlier, improve course quality, and make confident decisions that drive retention and outcomes.
Student engagement and success
See who is falling behind before it is too late, and give every learner a real chance to succeed. Track engagement in real time, step in earlier, and improve retention, achievement, and attendance.
