D2L Brightspace is used extensively in the US and Canada, and it is now coming to TU Dublin - City Campus. TU Delft has recently undergone a similar (and successful) move from Blackboard to Brightspace, and University College Dublin have also chosen Brightspace as their new VLE and are just a short way ahead of TU Dublin - City Campus in the change process.
