Bb Users,
Finally, you will be able to login to Blackboard with your CaneID! (If everything goes according to plan*)
We will be making this change live at approximately 10:00am on Wednesday, August 11th.
The process will look like this:
1. If you have a CaneID, click the Continue button in the bottom right of this window:
2. You will be prompted for your MyUM/CaneID login information:
3. You will have access to Blackboard the same as ever.
If you have a “special” account (as many faculty have student account that they use for testing) that does not have a CaneID associated with it, then choose the second option and login with your same old Blackboard login for that account.
* In the event that everything does not go according to plan, we will back out the changes, and things will go right back to the way they were. I will send out a message if that happens. We will be standing by to deal with any issues or questions. (305-284-3949)

Subject: Logging into Blackboard with CaneID
Bb Users,
We have been working to allow you to login to Blackboard using your CaneID and password, and it looks promising that we will make it happen before this fall. If we can’t implement it by August 11th, we will postpone it another semester, but I wanted to let you know that we are getting close.
What does this mean? Instead of being presented with the standard Blackboard login page, you will see a page similar to the one that appears below. You will be able to choose whether you want to login with your CaneID or your Blackboard login. We encourage you to start using the CaneID/MyUM login.
I just wanted to keep you in the loop and make you aware that when you go to www.miami.edu/blackboard or www.courses.miami.edu, you will hopefully see a page like the one below instead of the Blackboard login page you are accustomed to seeing.
