Step-By-Step
Adding Accounts To Your Course Site
Enroll User

(Text version)

1. Information Technology Services will, upon requesting a course site for a particular semester, populate all Arts & Sciences, Engineering, Nutrition and Veterinary School course sites with the Blackboard accounts of registered students. All other Blackboard course sites must be populated manually by using either the "Enroll User" function or Self-Enroll User Function.

2. All instructors and TAs can manually enroll user accounts using the "Enroll User" function.

3. To Enroll a user account on your Blackboard course site:

  • Login to the Blackboard course site as usual.
  • Go to Control Panel / Enroll User. This will display the "Enroll User" form.
  • Type in the last name of the student you wish to enroll on your course site. Then click on the "Search" button. This will display all of the accounts in the Blackboard database having that last name.
  • Checkmark the box to the left of the student you want to enroll. Then click on the "Submit" button on the bottom of the page. A receipt will be displayed telling you that the account has been added to your course site.

4. You can check all of the accounts on your Blackboard course site by going to Control Panel / List/Modify Users and click on the "Search" button. This will display all of the accounts associated with your course site.

5. A very common problem with using the "Enroll User" function happens when you attempt to enroll a user who already has an account on the course site. This user's name will not appear in the database when you search for it via the "Enroll User" function. Make sure to check the Control Panel / List/Modify Users / Search before attempting to use the "Enroll User" function to ensure that the account is not already associated with the course site.
