BLACKBOARD PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS

Blackboard uses a web interface which differs significantly from that of our previous LMS, WebCT. For this reason, before using Blackboard, faculty, who will be using Blackboard to web enhance their F2F courses or teaching hybrid/fully online courses, are asked to participate in the Basic Blackboard courses. The training is mapped out in the Blackboard 9.1 Training Tracks. For those faculty that have been using Blackboard 9.0, we offer a What's New in BB 9.1 workshop.

If you would like to use Blackboard 9 to manage your online learning environment, please refer below links that contain the Blackboard workshops' descriptions and dates. Please email ittraining@ric.edu to sign up for workshops that best fit your schedule.
