Blackboard Workshops Schedule
REMINDER: The system office extended the migration deadline for Blackboard from December, 2012 to June, 2013. This means that we will create courses and rosters in both Learn and Vista for fall 2012 and spring 2013. However, the support for Vista will be extremely limited during this period. Starting summer 2013, the courses and rosters will only be loaded into Learn. After May 2013, the Blackboard system will exist as an archive only until summer 2014 to allow faculty members to make copies of the old courses. Therefore, all should attend an Overview workshop session as soon as possible. We will offer workshops throughout the fall semester as well.
Information Technology & Innovation will be offering the following workshops to Faculty and Staff.
- Wednesday, July 17 - MS Word - Section Breaks & Styles (10:30am-Noon)
- Thursday, July 18 - MS Excel - Q & A (10:30am-Noon)
- Tuesday, July 23 - MS Word - Mail Merge (10:30am-Noon)
