What people are saying
The decision to upskill was influenced by D2L and its Learning & Creative Services team because we saw all these cool things that could be done with templates. That made us want to learn how to do it for ourselves, and to be more independent and self-sufficient.
Cairo Okba Digital Programmes Manager, Gafta
To make the learning experience more engaging, we worked with D2L Learning Services to introduce a badging system into the first level of our accountancy qualifications. Each candidate is awarded points for completing certain activities.
Stuart Pedley-Smith Head of Learning, Kaplan Financial
Thanks to the Learning Services team, who collaborated with us to develop templates, we can quickly create content even though I’m not a learning design expert. We can create Courses using the templates and it just seems quite intuitive to use. We don’t have to go into HTML.

Why should I choose D2L over other eLearning vendors?

With unrivaled expertise, we take our clients on a journey of transformation. When education technology is easy to use, captivating and efficient, it sparks genuine change in people’s lives. We aren’t in the business of cookie-cutter solutions. Each learning experience we create is as unique as the learners who use it.
Can you walk me through the process?
Our process draws on a long history of design excellence. We live and breathe the latest eLearning design strategies—such as hyflex, artificial intelligence, authentic assessments, micro-credentialing and adaptive competency-based education—to create fully accessible, easy-to-use learning experiences. Our team designs and develops experiences that engage learners with interactive content, transmit key concepts and skills, and foster learning communities. With 1000+ clients worldwide and years of wisdom under our belt, we can efficiently deliver unforgettable learning experiences to your learners.
First, we assess your current offerings, absorb your vision and set a strategy with you—for you. With our DesignExcellence process, we quickly determine where to focus our attention to best serve your project. If you’re starting from scratch, we help with the essential elements of creating the best possible learning experience. If you’re looking to improve an experience, we uplift and enrich your existing content, assessments and learner support by introducing strategies that enhance learner development and foster a sense of community. No matter your needs or goals, our team helps lead your organisation to success.
Discover, architect, build, test, deliver–that’s our approach based on years of experience. All courseware projects have a project manager and an instructional designer who coordinate course outcomes, content and assessment strategies. With expertise across modalities and assessment practices, you can confidently deliver the most engaging and effective learning experiences. Before putting your materials into the Brightspace platform, we go through an iterative design process that includes internal and stakeholder reviews for quality assurance. Then, we launch the experience in your Brightspace environment. As a last step, we ensure your team is enabled by providing documentation and training on how to keep everything up to date.
Do you write course content?
Through our use of artificial intelligence, we can support content creation on any subject. With a focus on learner-centered design, our instructional designers have developed learning experiences for pretty much every subject, level of education or corporate context you can think of.
How long does it take to build a course?
Our team can ramp up quickly to deliver courses in as little as three to four weeks depending on course size and features. With our proven approaches we can deliver content efficiently and effectively.
What are D2L & Quality Matters Templates?
D2L and Quality Matters (QM) are pleased to present LMS templates infused with quality practices and standards. Templates act as pre-built frameworks, infused with best practices for online course design, development and delivery. They’re blueprints for success, ensuring consistency, organisation, and adherence to recognised quality standards, like QM’s Rubrics for Higher Education, K-12 and Continuing and Professional Education. Rather than starting from scratch, instructors can design their course within a well-crafted template that provides efficient navigation, good organisation and placeholders for vital information.
