- Request a batch enrollment from the Teaching and Learning Center (form available from the Quick Links area of the Teaching & Learning Center web page)
- Manually enroll students from the Users area of the Blackboard course (more about this topic will follow in next week's blog post)
Some tips when choosing to request a batch enrollment:
- Ensure all former students have been removed from the course - failure to remove former students will result in adding the new/current students to the roster of former/past students in the same site
- Know where to find your 4-digit class number (eServices roster or class schedule) and Blackboard Course ID (Customization > Properties)
- Batch enrollments are completed in the order they are received and cannot be completed at a specific time or on a specific day
- Change course availability to "No" within Customization > Properties if your batch enrollment is processed before you want students to see the course
IMPORTANT: A batch enrollment is a snapshot of your eServices roster at the time the batch enroll was processed - there is no link between the roster in eServices and the roster in Blackboard.
- It is best to request the batch enroll no earlier than one week before the class is scheduled to start to ensure a more accurate roster.
- If your class enrollment changes, you must add or remove students manually (or change a user's availability) within the Users area of your Blackboard course.
Learn more about batch enrollments on our Beginning A Semester Blackboard guide. Next week we'll cover the topic of User Management.
