D2L Achievement+ features an interface that can help align course activities and assessments with learning outcomes.

It also offers a centralised dashboard for program achievement data, simplifying accreditation reporting and can provide valuable insights for continual improvement and upskilling.

"As educational technology leaders, one of our primary goals is to make it easy to transform learning and deliver real impact," said D2L founder and CEO John Baker.

"I'm very proud of our team's work to optimise our platform to help improve outcomes for learners. The launch of Achievement+ can make it easier to progress students based upon mastery of learning materials and real outcomes. Ultimately this can give educators more time back in their day to help students to be better researchers, scientists, entrepreneurs, artists, or to tackle the big challenges in our communities."

Competency-based education (CBE) helps enable schools, institutions, and organisations to deliver learning experiences that can lead to practical, demonstrable outcomes and genuine skill mastery.

According to a 2020 National Survey on Post Secondary Education, 82% of US institutions anticipate growth in CBE programs by 2025, underscoring the increasing demand for straightforward and effective reporting—this is why D2L created Achievement+ for Brightspace.
