Learn how to work with a Direct integration in a Brightspace course. Depending on how the Brightspace course is set up and your permissions, you might refer to one or more guides below.

If there's a link for the MyLab and Mastering or Access Pearson integration in a module, remove or hide it from students. Otherwise, students might select the link and be asked to pay for access to MyLab and Mastering.

Use instructor self service

Use the Instructor Self Service link to manage grade sync, add or restore Direct integration links, and view course details.

If your institution uses opt-in or opt-out managed by Pearson, you can set the start date for your MyLab or Mastering content. If your institution uses anonymization, you can view the course roster.

Get students started

When students use Direct integration links, they select a link and accept the license agreement and privacy policy. Students will then appear in your MyLab and Mastering gradebook and roster.
