How-to’s
Start with our CTL's curated list of Brightspace documentation for step-by-step how-to written instructions and videos.
The Centre for Teaching and Learning is creating How-to documentations and videos to complement those that are already available in the Brightspace documentation and Brightspace Community and will be added to the curated list as they are finished.
D2L has a host of documentation available at https://documentation.brightspace.com/.

Course Design Help
If you are interested in taking advantage of the new tools and options Brightspace provides by redesigning your course(s), instructional design help is available by contacting brightspace@uwindsor.ca.
Brightspace Community Training and Resources
Online self-paced Guided Training, videos, webinars, resources, and a community of users are available in the Brightspace Community. Create an account to join the community the first time you visit to access the abundance of learning and support material you'll find there. (Note: D2L is transitioning their Community webpages from the legacy Brightspace Community to a new easier to use Brightspace Community website and you may find not all material has moved to the new website yet.)
