D2L has been changing the way the world learns for over two decades. With D2L for Business, we provide organisations with a comprehensive learning solution designed to maximise ROI and close critical skills gaps, helping you compete and win in your market. 

Why did we create D2L for Business? 

Upskilling and continuous employee training is a top priority for many businesses, but the solutions currently available don’t always meet the mark. Employees are often frustrated with their learning experiences and struggle to get the right upskilling. Our research shows that although 83% of employees recognise that ongoing skill development can help them be more successful in their roles and careers, only half have completed training outside of work in the past five years. 

That’s why we set out to create a solution. Our mission is to transform the way the world learns, after all. With D2L for Business, we want to help businesses like yours be part of that change and deliver learning experiences that make a difference for your organisation and its employees. Whether you want to help people improve their productivity or be more engaged at work, D2L for Business gives your organisation the flexibility it needs to take on your most pressing talent transformation goals. We support lifelong learning by helping businesses provide high-impact learning to accelerate career development and upskill and reskill employees.  

With D2L for Business, we’re helping to provide organisations with a better way to leverage one of the best strengths they have—their people.  

D2L for Business aims to help organisations address their most pressing human capital and talent challenges through high-impact learning. In fact, by 2027, 44% of workers’ skills will be disrupted, leaving companies at risk of falling behind if they don’t prioritise employee development. Compounding this issue, 90% of organisations are concerned about employee retention, as losing valuable team members can significantly impact productivity and culture. The cost of replacing an employee can range from 20-30% of their annual salary, whereas reskilling costs less than 10%, making upskilling a more efficient and sustainable solution. 

What does D2L for Business do? 

More than anything, D2L for Business acts as a bridge. It connects people with the career they’re pursuing, with their colleagues (whether at the desk next door or across the world) and with the values and mission of the organisation. We want to help foster this human learning experience and empower your organisation’s employees to maximise their potential to turn learning into a competitive advantage.   

Here are some highlights of what to expect with D2L for Business:  

  • Develop in-demand skills: Use customised learning paths, make assessments meaningful, and engage learners with high-quality, interactive and accessible experiences 
  • Improve employee retention: Gain recognition as a people-centric organisation by personalising learning, boosting career growth and building a culture that puts learning at its center.
