Part 2: Registering Course Participants

In March 2022, Project PARA began a transition to Canvas, a new course management system. Completed through a multiphase process, this transition is being completed through a partnership between the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the Educational Service Unit Coordinating Council, and the Nebraska Department of Education.

This document provides instructions on how to register course participants in the Project Para Self-Study program.  Once a district administrators registration request is reviewed and approved by the Project Para team, course students may begin to be enrolled through the steps below either by district admin, registered supervisors, or the course students themselves. 

Supervisors and Course Students registering themselves: 

  1. Send them this registration link.  Also found at para.myesu.org in top navigation bar when "Registration" is selected (prior to district admin log-in).
  2. Have them complete the next steps as prompted, until complete.

District Administrators enrolling course students:

1. Go to para.myesu.org and sign-in. Click on “Add User” at the top of the page.


2. On the “Add User” page, fill in all information fields and click the green “Register” button at the bottom of the page.


There are four options for Roles:
  • District Administrator - supervises para course and/or supervisor course students across multiple schools in a district
  • Supervisor - supervises para course students in a single school
  • Student (Para Course) - user taking the course
  • Student (Supervisor Course) - user taking the "supervisors of paraeducators" course
  • There are additional administrative roles available.  Please contact ESUCC to inquire for further details for the additional options in the system.


3. After clicking the “Register” button, an automated email will be sent to the paraeducator/paraprofessional notifying them of their account pending approval and activation.

4. After adding a para participants account, district administrators will now need to activate the account. Instructions about approving users can be found in Part 2.5: Approving new users.
