How to access online courses via D2L

Central Carolina’s Internet (online) courses are taught using a course management software called D2L, which is accessed through the ‘D2L’ portlet on the ‘Student Tab’ in myCCTC. Your instructor will provide course information, learning modules, and communication methods within the course as well as assignments, testing, and assessment procedures for the course. There are additional instructions about using D2L inside your course, but if you have additional questions, be sure to ask your instructor or any of the technical support staff listed below.

You may access your online courses through the myCCTC student portal or directly from D2L. Below are directions for both methods of access:
