What is a Customer Spotlight?
A Customer Spotlight is a resource created by a D2L client and shared within the Brightspace Learning Center. Customer Spotlights are a collaborative outreach between Brightspace and one of our clients, to create a resource that will better help our community. Spotlights serve to demonstrate the capabilities of our partners within the Brightspace Learning environment and highlight their achievements for others to learn from.
