Do the learners know about the ability to sync their milestones and surveys to their personal calendars using the calendar integration? You can find more information here: https://help.riipen.com/en/articles/8392664-calendar-integration

Shokoufeh Moradi I don't think this solves enough of the issue, where the instructor wants it in their Canvas dashboard. I gave the calendar sync as an example, but the primary ask is for it to be in Canvas, since that's where they go to check as their 'hub' for all academic work needing to be done.

Thanks for this feedback. Could you please elaborate more and specify for example:
- Which user type is requesting this? Educators, Employers, Learners?
- How often has this been requested?
- Any specific use cases driving this need?
Thank you.

Shokoufeh Moradi Certainly, happy to contribute as much as I can. This was requested by an educator who was worried about completion rates of surveys, as learners would have to log in to the platform to see that it's outstanding, whereas with an integration with Canvas to assignments, the learner would be able to see in their Canvas dashboard (which serves as their academic hub for all courses) that there is an outstanding item and a direct link to complete it (on Riipen).
I've only heard of this being request once, but I can see the applicability for many Riipen academic clients, given Canvas is the #1 LMS by market share these days.
I know personally as as student, I have my Canvas assignments export as a Gcal, so it auto-populates onto my personal Google calendar when assignments are due.
