Video Editing with Camtasia Software
Camtasia is a powerful screen recording/video editing editing program that can be used to create video tutorials, how-to videos and other instructional recordings.

- Working remotely, from Camtasia's website
Q: How do I get the serial number for Camtasia?
- Email the IT Service Desk and they will be happy to send you a serial number to use.

Q: Is it okay if I have no desire to use Camtasia and prefer another recording tool?
- That is okay! Camtasia is just another tool in the faculty toolkit we wanted to offer based on feedback from instructors that have used Camtasia or are currently using Camtasia. However, if adoption of Camtasia is widespread, it will allow the CLI and ITS groups t better supports you via future teaching tools.
