  1. D2L Tutorial #1 – The Overview • D2L (Desire2Learn) is the learning management system that houses NFCC’s online and supplemented face-2-face courses. • Your instructor will use D2L to post course announcements, assignments, online quizzes, discussions, and grades. Many of your instructors will require you to post/turn-in your assignments via the D2L Dropbox. • This short tutorial will provide you with a general introduction to D2L. Note: When viewing this tutorial as a slide show, an audio recording is included. Be sure your computer’s volume is turned on in order to hear the tutorial’s narration.

  2. Getting Started • To find D2L, go to the NFCC webpage @ www.nfcc.edu • Click on the “myNFCC” icon located at the top right-hand corner of the webpage.

  3. Using your NFCC single sign-in username and password, login to the NFCC portal. • NOTE: If this is your first time using the myNFCC portal, click on “First Time User” to create an account.

  4. Once you have logged into the NFCC portal, you will have access to several different NFCC applications. • Click on the “Desire2Learn” icon in order to access your D2L account.
