New Procedure for Bb requests for FA08

As of this fall, Blackboard course shells will be automatically created for ALL academic courses!

  • ALL courses in SIS on or before June 3, 2008 now have shells in Blackboard.
  • All instructors that were assigned a course in SIS on or before June 3, 2008 now have access to their course shells.
  • These courses are set to be "unavailable" to students, BUT not the instructors.


The next upload of instructors will be on Friday July 11, 2008.

  • Instructors will be batch uploaded each Friday before 2:00pm.
  • The course request form should only be used when a new courses is added to SIS.
  • The request form will NOT open again until July 5, 2008.
  • Do NOT use the request form without checking Blackboard first.

If you are new to Blackboard you will need to attend training on Blackboard.
