Professional Learning Platform
The Department of Education's professional learning platform allows users to register for offerings, participate in learning experiences, and access records of training completed through this system.
If you have not used Canvas and/or Catalog, explore the subsequent resources before reaching out for additional support:
- Canvas Student Guides

- Canvas Community
- Instructure Community, Help with Catalog
- Chat with our Canvas Support
Accessing the professional learning platform:
- I have a K-12 email account.
Users who have a K-12 email account will log into the system using the same log-in information they use for their K-12 account. NOTE: For the purposes of this system only, K-12 email accounts have automatically been given a MySD account, which will allow you to access State of South Dakota services using a single username and password. - I do not have a K-12 email account.
If you do not have a K-12 email, submit a request to be provisioned into Instructure Canvas. You will also need to create a matching mySDaccount with the same email, if you don't already have one. - Issue while logging in to platform:
If you accidentally created multiple Canvas accounts or if your K-12 email changed recently, let us know. If you are being logged into a different mySD account automatically, try clearing your browsing data. If you are having difficulty with your password, consult the mySD knowledge base and contact them as needed. If it indicates that there is not an account with that email, please wait for 72 hours and reach out to our Canvas support first if the issue continues.
