After creating an account or logging in to https://learn.dcita.edu, students are greeted with a comprehensive training calendar featuring direct links to course enrollment pages within the catalog.
A new slider at the bottom of the homepage highlights featured and newly released courses, along with important news and announcements.
Simplified Navigation:

My Training: directs students to the Learning Management System (LMS), where currently enrolled and upcoming courses can be viewed.
