Introduction to Community course
🤔 “What is this AMAZING new space all about? How can I get started?”
The Community Team has put together a course that is intended for all Community Members and Brightspace Enthusiasts. Learn more about the people and resources you can connect with from the Brightspace Community, and how you can scale this support through your own place of learning.
👉️ Want to access this course? We’ve made it real simple – right from within our Community Tour article that can be found on the Community homepage 🎉
Accessibility Academy- Badges
🏆 Recognition and earning an award is always so exciting! We have heard from our Community Members how valuable our Accessibility Academy courses inside the Learning Center have been to promote Accessibility best practices and training.
To recognize participation and review of accessibility content inside the Learning Center - Accessibility Academy courses now feature unique awards that can be earned by Community Members. These badges can also be shared with your professional network!
