How is the Brightspace Community different than the Brightspace platform I use every day?
The Brightspace you are used to using for education purposes is what we like to call the Brightspace Learning Environment. The Learning Environment is where you learn, teach, or administrate, depending on your role within your organization or school.
Where do I go if I have questions about my Brightspace Learning Environment?
You may have questions about YOUR individualized Brightspace Learning Environment such as:
Where do I go if I have questions about my content or courses?
What if I can't get logged into my Brightspace Learning Environment?
Here is where to start with Brightspace Learning Environment Questions or Concerns:
Ask the Community!
The Brightspace Community houses a great network of knowledgeable individuals who are ready and willing to answer your Brightspace questions.
Click the button labelled Ask A Question on the Community homepage. There's a great chance there are others wondering the exact same thing!
Contact Your IT Help Desk
We strongly encourage you to Ask a Question, but if you feel you require support outside of the Community, please contact your institution's IT (Information Technology) Help Desk. If they are not able to assist you directly, they will be able to submit a support ticket on your behalf.
