Instructure announced last month the launch in beta for select customers of its workforce-aligned, employee-centric, skills-first LMS named Canvas Career. General availability of the platform is expected in January 2026.
This platform is oriented toward upskilling and reskilling adult learners, helping them build in-demand skills, advance in their careers, and stay competitive in a rapidly changing job market.
A recent survey conducted by The Harris Poll, commissioned by Instructure, stated that 73% of U.S. workers reported feeling unprepared to adapt to changes or disruptions in their careers over the next five years.
Additionally, about 50% expressed uncertainty about which skills, certifications, or credentials employers value.
Canvas Career is explicitly built for non-credit, continuing education, career switchers, and training for internal workforces and external customers, including short courses and skills-based learning programs.
With built-in AI tools, credentialing, video content, and enterprise integrations, Canvas Career focuses on what to teach and how to deliver it effectively.
The antecedent of this platform was Bridge, which Instructure finally sold.
