Navigating to the Assurance Filing

After logging into Canopy, users can navigate to the Assurance Filing section in different ways depending on which roles they have in the system:

• Assurance Filing Contributors who do not have another HLC role at their institution and are not HLC peer reviewers will be taken directly to the Assurance Filings landing page after they log in.
• Contributors who have another institutional or peer reviewer role in Canopy can access any Assurance Filings they are assigned to by selecting the “Assurance Filing Contributor” role after logging in.

• Accreditation Liaison Officers and Chief Executive Officers may access Assurance Filings from the institution dashboard and the main menu.
  • On the dashboard, click “Assurance Filings” in the Quick Links box.
  • In the main menu, click “Institution” and then select “Assurance Filings.”
