Wattle
Canvas is now the primary Learning Management System (LMS) for ANU; from Semester 1 2026 all teaching occurs in Canvas.
From 17 December 2025, most staff and students will no longer be able to log in to Wattle.
Due to specific requirements, a small number of groups retain limited Wattle access into 2026, but most staff and students will no longer be able to log in.
Information for students
If you want to keep materials from previous courses, please download any required files before 17 December.
Guidance is available at: Online access for courses (students)
Information for staff
Staff who need copies of course materials or gradebooks for compliance, accreditation or administrative purposes should export or download these before 17 December.
Guidance is available at: Course material retention options (for staff)
If you believe you will require Wattle after 17 December and have not been contacted regarding continued access, please submit a request to Learning and Teaching User Support via Service Desk.
