During this O-Week session, students are introduced to CourseLink, the University’s online learning management system (LMS). Using D2L’s Brightspace platform, CourseLink is where most instructors post grades, upload course materials and make course-related announcements.

This session covers all the CourseLink basics such as how to access the system and course sites, how to set up profile and notification settings, and what to expect from the most commonly used tools. It also provides advice on how to effectively use the LMS to help you achieve academic success!
