How do I create my course in Blackboard?

This guide is for instructors that are the instructor of record for a course listed in myBama. An instructor of record can choose to use Blackboard Learn for their sections using the Blackboard Learn Section Maintenance tool through myBama.

If courses are missing in the Blackboard Learn Section Maintenance tool, contact your department to confirm that you have been assigned as the instructor of record.
