This Week in the LEC: Retrieve Your GoToTraining Recordings Now, Zoom News and More
Issue Date: 05-01-2020
A Message about GoToTraining from OIIT
As the Office of Innovation and Information Technology (OIIT) has brought Zoom to our University, they too have begun to phase out GoToTraining. Please read the message below about access to GoToTraining and your access to recordings from prior sessions. Then check out the Workshop offering about how to archive your recordings just below.
As the Winter 2020 semester draws to a close, it’s important to remember that May 15th, 2020 marks the date when the GoToTraining integration will no longer be available in Canvas. After this date, students will not have access to GoToTraining recordings in Canvas courses. If you wish to make your recordings available beyond the cutoff date, you will need to download them from GoToTraining’s website and place them in SharkMedia. Instructions on how to do so can be found here: Archive GoToTraining Recordings
As a licensed user, access to your GoToTraining account will continue to be available outside of Canvas until 6/30/2020. It will be your responsibility to download any additional recordings that you would like to keep before your account expires. If you need additional assistance you can call GoToTraining support toll-free at 1-833-851-8340.
For additional questions on this topic reach out to Larry Lettie (llettie@nova.edu) or Wendy Meyers (wendym@nova.edu).
