Enrolling WWU Users in a Course
All Blackboard users must have either a WWU Universal account or a Blackboard Guest Account to be added to the course. If a user does not have a WWU Universal account (such as a guest lecturer from another university), please Request a Guest Account OR contact Web Help to have a guest account set up.
To add a user to the course who is not already enrolled (such as a TA, guest lecturer, course builder, etc.):
1. Select Enroll User from User Management in the Control Panel.
2. Enter the user's last name, user name or email address and select Search.
3. When the search is complete a list of names will appear.
Note: If the user you are trying to add is already enrolled in the Blackboard course, his/her name will not appear in the search return list. System Administrators also will not appear.
4. Select the checkbox next to the name(s) of the individual(s) you'd like to enroll.
5. Click Submit.
6. The user has now been added with the role of Student.
7. If necessary, you can modify the user's role:
- Go to the Control Panel of the course
- Select List/Modify Users under User Management
- Type in last name or username of the user you wish to modify, type the appropriate Search by term, and click the Search button. To see all users select the Search button without entering parameters.
Select the Properties button next to the user you wish to modify- At the bottom of that screen in the Role and Availability section go to Available - this course only and select
Yes or No as appropriate. - Select the Submit button at the bottom right of the page.
- Note that you will not be able to view or modify Blackboard System Adminstrators that are in your course.
