School of Business Faculty

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. 

Other Schools

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. 

Your Password: If you are unable to log in because you can't remember your password, or are not sure you received one, click "Forgotten your password?" on the Login page to reset it. If you do not receive a reset message, this means you are not yet registered and should request a registered account using the process outlined earlier on this page.

1. To get started, log in to The Case Centre. If you are not already registered, do not use the Registration Form on the website; instead, consult the options detailed above under "FAQ for First-Time Users"
2. Enter your search criteria into the product search tool to generate a list of items that match
3. Use the 'Undergraduate Case Teaching Licence' tick box, to find only material that is available under our licence
4. Browse your search results, all items that match your search criteria, and are available under our licence, are clearly marked with "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.

1. Simply click the PDF icon (or the link next to the icon) that appears next to the product details in your search results.

Once you've found a case that you'd like to use in class, accessing it is a quick process:

1. Click the ‘add to basket’ button next to it in your search results
2. In the pop-up window tell us that you'll be using the item for teaching/training purposes
3. Select whether you'd like to distribute the item to students by downloading a PDF to print, or by providing access on your "password-protected course area" (eConestoga)
4. Provide your course title.
5. Select undergraduate as your course type.
6. Say what your class size (number of students) will be.
7. You'll see that any items provided under our organisation's licence are charged at zero cost.
8. Click ‘add to basket’, you can then choose to add more items to your order, or proceed through the checkout.
9. Once your order has been placed, you can visit the Case Centre library in your account to access your materials.

Once you've ordered the cases you wish to teach with, under the terms of our licence you can:

• Download the PDF of each item from your Case Centre library to print out hard copies, up to a maximum of the number ordered.
• Add a link to the item from our password-protected course area (eConestoga) to enable students to access the PDF - the link you need for each item will be provided in your Case Centre library.

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.
