Iowa Western is aware of the recent Canvas outage related to a cyber incident affecting Instructure, the parent company of Canvas. Canvas service has currently been restored, and the college continues to monitor the situation closely.
At this time, there is no indication that IWCC systems or sensitive student data have been impacted.
Because the outage may have affected coursework, assignments, or finals, students should continue checking Canvas and their IWCC email for updates from instructors regarding any course changes or deadline adjustments.
Students experiencing issues related to the outage should contact their instructor directly for guidance.
Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we work through this situation together.
