About the D2L Student Training

Students who are taking any fully online or hybrid courses are required to complete the D2L Student Training. They must pass the cumulative quiz, with a score of 80% or better, before they can access their online or hybrid courses. Students who have not successfully completed the training have a “hold” on their D2L account – the hold is released when the D2L Student Training Quiz is completed with an 80% or better score.

NOTE: Students can retake the quiz repeatedly until they attain a score of 80% or better.

Once your training quiz is completed with a score of 80% or better, your completion certificate appears as an Announcement and the hold is released.
