Unitek College · Canvas / "My Online Courses" (unitekcollege.instructure.com)
Does Silent Student work at Unitek College?
Yes — on Canvas, launched from your CampusNexus portal.
Unitek runs Instructure Canvas, but you never see a Canvas login page: you sign into the CampusNexus student portal and click "My Online Courses", which opens Canvas through a SAML hand-off in a pop-up. The general-education side of the nursing track — A&P, Micro, Psych and Soc — submits natively in Canvas and is covered. Your nursing core is not: it runs on ATI, which Silent Student does not automate.

Platform coverage
Unitek's gen-eds, and the part that stays yours
Of the 4 Unitek courses we looked at, Silent Student covers the courseware behind 3 and partly covers 1.
These are the general-education courses in Unitek's nursing track. Unitek delivers them in Canvas without paid publisher courseware, so the real limit here is the hands-on component of a clinical program, not the software.
A&PCovered
Anatomy & Physiology
Native Canvas
Anatomy & Physiology is a general-education science course in Unitek's nursing track, delivered in Canvas. Its quizzes, assignments, and discussions are completed natively in Canvas, with the written pieces held in Draft Review for your approval; no SilentStudent-supported publisher courseware was confirmed for this course, so it is native Canvas work.
Microbiology with Lab is a general-education prerequisite delivered in Canvas; Silent Student completes its lecture quizzes and discussions in Canvas while you handle the hands-on lab work yourself.
Introduction to Psychology submits in Canvas with no paid courseware confirmed; its discussion posts and essays are held in Draft Review for your approval before anything posts.
Introduction to Sociology is a general-education requirement delivered in Canvas; its discussions and written assignments route through Draft Review, and a graded, single-attempt, untimed quiz stops for your review if an answer falls below your 70% confidence threshold.
Unitek runs Canvas behind the CampusNexus student portal
Unitek College uses Instructure Canvas as its learning management system, though students rarely see the word "Canvas": you sign into the Unitek student portal — Anthology's CampusNexus CMC Portal at my.unitekcollege.edu (portal.unitekcollege.edu/CMCPortal/) — and then click "My Online Courses" at the bottom of the portal menu, which opens Canvas at unitekcollege.instructure.com in a pop-up you have to allow. There is no direct, public Canvas login link advertised to students; entry is always through the portal. The hand-off is SAML single sign-on, with the CampusNexus portal acting as the identity broker. Here is the setup Silent Student detects.

Questions
Unitek FAQ
Your nursing core, which is the part you probably care most about. Unitek runs it on ATI, an NCLEX-prep assessment platform Silent Student does not automate at all. Microbiology also has a lab component, and clinical hours are obviously yours. What it does work is the general-education side — A&P, Micro, Psych and Soc lecture quizzes, discussions and written assignments — which all submit natively in Canvas.
You sign into Unitek's Anthology CampusNexus student portal once, then "My Online Courses" federates you into Canvas over SAML single sign-on. Unitek does not publicly document a 2FA method for the portal or Canvas, so Silent Student simply handles whatever your school prompts when the session starts; the session then persists on your device.
The general-education prerequisites that run natively in Canvas — Anatomy & Physiology, Microbiology with Lab, Introduction to Psychology, and Introduction to Sociology — including their quizzes, discussions, and essays. Your nursing core uses ATI, an NCLEX-prep assessment platform Silent Student does not automate, so it focuses on the native Canvas coursework around it.
Yes. Silent Student is tied to your Canvas account, not a single school, so if you co-enroll or transfer it keeps working wherever your courses live. It also supports other schools' Canvas — like Houston Community College, Lone Star College, Texas A&M (canvas.tamu.edu), and UT Austin — and Brightspace schools such as SNHU, so a transferred queue keeps running on the same app.
Nursing programs carry their own academic-integrity and licensure expectations, and those are yours to weigh — on a licensure track, what you actually retain from A&P and Micro is the point. your Canvas essays, discussion posts and file uploads always become drafts for you to read, edit and approve, and are never submitted on their own whatever confidence the model reports. Quizzes work differently — on a graded, single-attempt, untimed Canvas quiz with time still on the clock, an answer below your confidence threshold (70% by default) stops the quiz for your review, while timed and multi-attempt quizzes submit on their own. External courseware is the one to know about: it has no draft step at all, so a Packback post publishes as it is written.
There is no public Canvas login link at Unitek. You sign into the CampusNexus student portal and click "My Online Courses" at the bottom of the menu, which opens Canvas in a pop-up — you have to allow pop-ups for it. Silent Student follows the same SAML hand-off.
A&P, Micro, Psych and Soc all submit in Canvas, and Silent Student works them there. The hands-on lab component and your clinical hours are still yours to do.

What waits for you and what doesn't. Written work in your LMS — essays, discussion posts and file uploads — is always saved as a draft for you to read, edit and approve, and is never submitted on its own. Work on external courseware has no draft step: platforms like Packback publish as the solver writes them. Quizzes use a separate review hold, described in the FAQ above.
