The College continues to monitor the global data security incident affecting Canvas, the learning management system used to deliver student courses and programs.

As a precautionary security measure, the College has chosen to disconnect from Canvas systems while further assessment and monitoring continues.

Students and staff will not be able to access Canvas at this time and we encourage all users to close any existing Canvas browser sessions or applications currently open on their devices.

We will reassess access to Canvas as further information and updates become available.

Update May 7th 2026

There has been a global data security incident affecting Canvas, the learning management system the College uses to deliver your course or program. Canvas is operated by Instructure, a third-party provider used by government departments, universities and education organisations worldwide.

Instructure has advised that an incident occurred within its systems, and while our own systems were not breached, some student data held within Canvas such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, student identification numbers and messages exchanged in Canvas may have been accessed.

Other personal information such as passwords, dates of birth, government identifiers or financial information are not stored in Canvas by the College.

The incident is being actively monitored by Instructure and Canvas remains available for student use.

We understand that incidents of this nature can cause concern. The College remains committed to safeguarding the security and integrity of its data and is maintaining close contact with Instructure and will share further updates if required.
