Blackboard Upgrade Coming

October 11, 2018 at 11:14 AM
Dear Campus Community,

Each year, the area of Instructional Technology strives to ensure that we offer the most current version of Blackboard Learn without introducing known functional issues to our campus user community that often accompany new software releases.

After researching the versions that are currently available, it has been decided that on December 19th beginning at 5:30 a.m., Blackboard Managed Hosting will upgrade our current version, Q4 2016 CU6, to the most current and stable version available today, Q2 2018 CU3. This newer version has many enhancements with the least amount of functional issues users might encounter.

Because we are bypassing several versions, we would like to invite everyone to attend an overview that will be given by our Blackboard Client Success Manager, Sue Burris, in the Board Room on Wednesday, October 24, 2018 from 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. If you are unable to attend in person, you may attend virtually via Blackboard Collaborate Ultra at https://bit.ly/SuesVOffice

For those unable to attend, a link to a recording of the presentation will be distributed at a later date.



If you have any questions, please contact the IT Helpdesk at 501.450.3107, itsupport@uca.edu, or http://uca.edu/go/itsupport/.

Thank You,
