Case Study: London District Catholic School Board achieves near-100% workplace safety compliance and streamlined professional learning with D2L Brightspace

Teachers Become the Students Reinventing Professional Learning at London District Catholic School Board

The London District Catholic School Board (LDCSB), serving 18,000 students and 3,300+ staff across a large, mostly rural region, needed a more efficient way to deliver professional learning to a growing, transient workforce of part‑time and supply teachers. The board faced challenges in ensuring and tracking compliance with mandated workplace safety training, scaling supervisory course content for principals, and increasing staff familiarity with a single learning platform.

LDCSB consolidated disparate tools onto the Brightspace Professional Learning solution and integrated it with Microsoft Office 365, delivering bite‑sized, trackable courses for staff and principals. The board achieved nearly 100% completion of mandatory workplace safety training, centralized compliance tracking that saved substantial administrative time, 100% staff awareness of Brightspace, a 2.5× increase in classroom Brightspace use, and new opportunities to scale supervisory and induction programs online.
