[BB] 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.
