Learning technology company D2L has launched its Brightspace Creator+ package, allowing anyone to create digital courses without having to learn coding. The company is committed to creating online tools that are easily accessible and learnable by anyone, it said. The launch follows a prototype released in May 2022, called the Creator+ Early Access Program, and revised in collaboration with educators and tech designers.

The software features ready-made templates, a practice exercises and questions tool for learners, a content styling tool, a multimedia application called Capture App, and interactive elements. The software is designed for the K–12, higher education, and business sectors, with an emphasis on those who have limited time and resources.
