Canva Enterprise

EKU Canva Enterprise


Canva is a widely-used graphic design platform known for its ease of use and powerful features. It allows anyone, regardless of design experience, to create beautiful visuals with its intuitive drag-and-drop interface.

With a library full of templates, images, fonts, and icons, you can quickly produce high-quality communications for any purpose. It’s the go-to tool for creating, collaborating, and sharing visual content – from social media to flyers to presentations to video and more.

The Office of Communications and Brand Management owns a Canva Enterprise account, which is not the same as the free or pro version.

Canva Enterprise FAQs

Great question! If you’re creating content that’s seen by the public (students, alumni, faculty, staff, community members, and friends of the university), the value is well worth the cost. A Canva subscription remains less expensive than alternatives like the Adobe Creative Cloud subscription. Canva also offers greater ease of use, more sharing options and is well suited for supporting branded communications.

Seats are for individual use.

Brand approvals are now optional. We strongly recommend submitting your design for approval – especially if you’re creating high visibility content (for marketing/recruitment or public-facing events, for example). An extra set of eyes never hurts, and our team is ready to help you achieve your communication objectives efficiently and effectively!

All official university communications must abide by the guidelines in the Brand Guide – but sometimes, the best option is to just check with your colleagues in Communications and Brand Management!
