IT Academy is going live with D2L!

Hello IT Academy Community,

We are very pleased to announce that beginning on June 1, 2021, IT Academy subscriptions will be available on D2L.
D2L is an industry leader and their Learning Management System (LMS) Brightspace is the ideal solution for our growing community.

The new D2L Brightspace platform lets institutions:

Easily coordinate and automate multiple student registrations
Improves visibility to the student learning journey with built-in analytics
Access and use co-branded marketing materials
Enable smoother student learning with Intuitive mobile-first design

It is important to us that the migration be a smooth transition for you and your students, so we highly encourage you to attend one of the live sessions webinars to give you an overview on how the D2L Brightspace platform works and share what you need to know to migrate your schools.

Your existing subscription with Kivuto will remain active until its expiration date. Starting June 1, 2021, when it is time to renew your existing subscription, you will receive instructions and be directed to the new D2L Brightspace. From June 1, 2021 onward, all new and renewed subscriptions will be managed through D2L.

Thanks for your patience and loyalty!

Hi,

Two issues:

1. The email for questions or additional support:

itacademysupport@vmware.com

rejects external email:

A custom mail flow rule created by an admin at onevmw.onmicrosoft.com has blocked your message.
Recipient is not authorized to accept external mail.

2. The first D2L link on the overview actually goes to Kivuto:

Hello @R_Ben

Thanks for letting us know!

1. Our correct email address for receiving support is itacademy@vmware.com

Could you please let us know where you received/found the old alias?

2. We have missed to update the Kivuto url behind the link and are working to update this page ASAP.

Again, many thanks for highlighting these to us.

Best Regards,

Vincent
