 Avenue to Learn is McMaster University'​s Learning Management System, or LMS. It provides a secure, online space where instructors can share their learning resources, administer quizzes, conduct online discussions,​ collect assignment submissions and serve as an online hub for their course. Avenue to Learn is built and hosted by D2L (who call Avenue to Learn "​Brightspace"​),​ and has been in place on campus since July 2010. If you have no experience using an LMS, scroll down this page for the section which contains our self-directed study program, which we also use as part of our blended training. Avenue to Learn is McMaster University'​s Learning Management System, or LMS.
