The Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges is moving from the ANGEL learning management system to Canvas. A committee evaluated options and selected Canvas based on faculty preference, technical quality, vendor references, and cost effectiveness. The transition will occur over the next two years, with full migration to Canvas planned by June 2014 at the end of the ANGEL contract. The new system will provide a single online platform across all colleges at a lower per-user cost than the current system.
