All Winter 2025 courses have been created in Blackboard and can now be accessed by instructors and staff that have been assigned to courses in Banner. Winter 2025 courses can be found by navigating to the courses page in Blackboard.
At this time, please consider exporting your course from the Fall 2024 term for safe keeping, and if you do, you can use OneDrive, which you can learn more about here. You can then import an exported course if you have one by following these instructions. You can also copy your current or previous course or copy individual items from your courses into your Winter 2025 course. If you’d like to merge your course sections together, please do so as soon as possible by following this link!
Please note that students will gain access to their Fall courses 72 hours before the first session of each course – for example, a course that starts January 8th at 12:35 p.m. will become accessible by students at 12:35 p.m. on January 5th.
