D2L Student Training

Students who are taking any fully online or hybrid courses are required to complete the D2L Student Training. They must finish the cumulative quiz with a score of 80% or higher before they can access their online or hybrid courses.

Students who have not successfully completed the training have a “hold” on their D2L accounts, preventing them from viewing content in their online and hybrid courses. This hold is released when students complete the training quiz with an 80% or better score.

This training was previously called "Student Orientation for Online Courses."
