Frequently Asked Questions
How do faculty gain access to Blackboard?
Your account is created in Blackboard through our automated daily import from Banner to Blackboard. The import pulls information (such as courses, users, and assignments, etc.) from Banner and imports it into our Blackboard system. When you are assigned as the instructor for a course in Banner, your account is created in Blackboard. YOU MUST BE TEACHING A COURSE OR OFFICIALLY ENROLLED IN A COURSE TO HAVE ACCESS TO BLACKBOARD.
I have created an assignment, how do I add it to the Grade Center?
Once an assignment is created, a column is automatically created for the assignment in the Grade Center. There is no need to create an item in the Grade Center for the assignments.
How do I make my course available to students?
- Under My Courses on the Home tab, click the name of the course that you want your students to be able to access.
- Under Course Management, click Customization.

Is there a way to record attendance in Blackboard?
