How do I request or access Brightspace?

All Brock accounts can access Brightspace directly by logging into brightspace.brocku.ca.

Brightspace site shells are automatically generated for all academic courses at Brock. Access to said sites relies on membership with an official roster, which is determined by instructor assignment or course enrolment. Both instructors and students should inquire with Brock Central (the Office of the Registrar & Enrolment Services) for authoritative answers as to their enrolment status.
