Blackboard – Original Course View Going Away Fall 2024

The original (legacy) course view in Blackboard will no longer be available beginning Fall 2024. All courses will use the Ultra course view. This will give our students a single experience in our learning management system and simplify support efforts. For those still using the original course view, training and support options can help you learn the newer Ultra interface. These live training workshops, provided by Anthology/Blackboard professionals, are available in early January:

  1. Transitioning Original Courses to Ultra Courses, Wednesday, Jan. 3, 1 pm – 3 pm
  2. Getting Started with Learn Ultra, Thursday, Jan. 4, 2 pm – 4 pm
  3. Putting It All Together, Tuesday, Jan. 9, 1 pm – 3 pm
  4. AI Design Assistant, Monday, Jan. 15, 2 pm – 4 pm
Details on the content for each module are available on the registration form. Each session has a limit of 20 attendees, so register soon to secure your spot.

There will also be open Q&A sessions in the spring, and a self-paced online course is now available.
