Develop robust, social, skill-building learning opportunities
Leverage easy integrations and built-in functionalities


We see a great opportunity to continue engaging learners across disciplines and help them to attain the skills and accreditation they need to develop their careers. We look forward to continue working with D2L as we grow our business and help more learners pass with flying colors.


We are a small team within our organization, and we don’t have all the resources to be able to support the growing number of learners and their needs. End User Support provides us the extra hands to help support our vast network of learners.

We use the intelligent agents feature to send notifications out to users automatically. Reminding people to sign up for courses, finish the modules they’re working on and take the quizzes is very time-consuming when you need to do it manually, so automating the process probably saves each instructor three to five hours per week.


We look forward to diving deep into the data that we have collected throughout our PoC to better understand the benefits of gamification. However, we can already see that the leaderboard and badging system is prompting our learners to apply more drive, determination and diligence to their studies: skills that will benefit them in the workplace as well as the exam hall.

I love the ability to track progress over time ... This greatly enhances the ability to have a real feel of value added and boosts return on investment (RoI) ... Well done @D2L @BrightspaceHelp
