Requesting Software

All software applications used by KPU (staff, faculty, students, alumni, and contractors, collectively called "users") must be reviewed by Teaching and Learning, Privacy, Information Security and IT and Finance & Procurement if funding is required to purchase the software. 

Software reviews ensure that:

  1. Teaching and Learning has assessed the software.
  2. A privacy impact assessment has been conducted.
  3. Legal compliance has been met.
  4. The software is compatible with current KPU systems and usage policies.
  5. The software vendor agreement complies with BC and Canadian laws.

Please note that only KPU employees are authorized to submit such requests. If you are a student, you may choose to ask your instructor or your faculty's Dean whether they are willing to support your request. If only a small number of individuals want to use the app you are interested in, there may be a significant delay while waiting for more individuals to express interest.

We at Kwantlen Polytechnic University respectfully acknowledge that we live, work and study in a region that overlaps with the unceded traditional and ancestral First Nations territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), qi̓  cə̓  y̓ (Katzie), SEMYOME (Semiahmoo), scə̓  waθən (Tsawwassen), qiqéyt (Qayqayt), and kwikwəƛ̓ə̓  m (Kwikwetlem); and with the lands of the qw̓  ɑ:nƛ̓ə̓  n̓ (Kwantlen First Nation), which gifted its name to this university.
