The Case Centre
Conestoga has an Undergraduate Case Teaching Licence from The Case Centre. This provides access to a significant subset of content from the Case Centre - over 34,000 cases from case producers around the world. Faculty can use these cases in their undergraduate curriculum at no charge to students. This does not include graduate certificate programs (i.e. courses with 8XXX course codes).
The Case Centre is not connected to your Constoga Single Sign On account. An account will be created for you using your Conestoga email address. See details below.
Existing School of Business undergraduate faculty (as of April 2024) are already registered in The Case Centre with their Conestoga email address but must reset their password to gain access. If you are a new faculty member, contact contact Chris Woodley in Library & Learning Services to request to be registered. Include your Title, Last Name, First Name, Email, Department and Position.

Once you have been registered for an account, you will use your Conestoga email address.
Passwords are not created for you during the registration process. Therefore, after you've registered, you must "reset" your password to create a password for yourself. If you forget your password in future, you can reset it in the same way.
You may have previously created an account with The Case Centre, in which case you may be registered but do not yet have access to the Undergraduate Case Teaching Licence.
To check:
If you can log in with your Conestoga email address to The Case Centre and see the Undergraduate Case Teaching Licence indicator at the top right of the screen, you are registered and have access to the Undergraduate Case Teaching Licence.
Registered and approved educators and programme administrators can access free educator preview copies of cases online, to help select which ones to use in class.
Online instructor materials (teaching notes, slides etc) are also available to download for free.
Once you've found a case that you'd like to use in class, accessing it is a quick process:
Once you've ordered the cases you wish to teach with, under the terms of our licence you can:
You can also add items, covered by our licence, to CoursePacks created using the Course Pack Creator.
Important: you cannot distribute cases to students in any other ways, including by email. Please refer to the licence terms for full information.
You must indicate the number of students you are licensing during the checkout process. If you do not yet know the number of students in your course, choose the option to access a preview copy of the case for your review. If the case meets your needs, put a placeholder in your course where the case link will be made available, and provide information in the instructor's area of the course to indicate the process course instructors must go through to add the case for their sections. Provide a link to this page so they can work through the steps required.
