About
Learning Management Software (e.g. D2L Brightspace) is an application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of electronic educational technology (also called e-learning) courses or training programs. IT Solutions provides support and training for D2L Brightspace.
Course Creation and Enrollment
IT Solutions creates both academic (e.g. courses that exist in the course catalog) and non-academic (e.g. courses for training, etc.) courses. When automatic enrollment (via Registration System) isn't available, IT Solutions will manually enroll users into courses.
Support, Training, and Development
ITS provides technical support and training to faculty, staff, and students using D2L Brightspace. We also provide instructional design and course development support for teaching with D2L Brightspace.
