Request a Blackboard Course

The Blackboard Course Request Self-Service option facilitates all aspects of the course request process, including:

Select which course section(s) you want on Blackboard directly from the list of your courses in MyUAlbany (select either Face-to-face or Fully Online - not both);
Indicate if you need multiple sections combined in Blackboard (select Shared Resource Course);
Request that ITS restore a Blackboard archive from a previous semester (select Copy BLS Course).

Note: Please allow 1-2 business days to process your course request, depending on course restore/copy needs. An e-mail confirmation will be sent to your preferred email address indicated in MyUAlbany when your Blackboard course shell is available for you to begin course development. We encourage you to designate your primary contact email address as preferred in the MyUAlbany Personal Information Center.
