UEN provides a state-wide consortium license for Canvas, a course management system used by eight USHE institutions, the Utah College of Applied Technology (UCAT), and some K-12 districts and schools in Utah. Course Management Systems (CMS) are Internet applications that allow students and faculty to complete most course tasks online from any location and at any time. Students connect via the Internet to each other, their instructors, learning activities, shared research materials, library resources, and some textbooks. Integration with campus administrative systems provides automated enrollment and grade reporting. UEN licenses Canvas from Instructure, a Utah-based company.

The following table shows budget data for the CMS program.
