Welcome Faculty!

Blackboard tips for you to help start the semester smoothly…

Remember, the most important step is to Make Your Courses Available for students to view. Uploading content does NOT make the course visible to students.

See instructions below

Set Availability in the Course Management Panel of your individual courses.
