In the Know

Ultra Upgrade Fall 2024 

The Design Center wants to share some general information about the Ultra Upgrade as we proceed through the summer and prepare for all Blackboard courses to be in Ultra for Fall 2024. 

Some simplistic but beneficial reminders… 

  • Courses will live within the same system. You will access your regular Blackboard account.  
  • Your Original Blackboard courses will remain in Blackboard in alignment with the regular archiving schedule. 
  • You will be able to access those Original courses and copy content to Ultra courses. Please see Best Practices for Ultra Course Conversion and Ultra Course Copy Directions. 
  • When you enter your Blackboard courses for Fall, it will be in the Ultra format. There will not be an instructor choice option, therefore no need to “convert” each new Blackboard section to Ultra. 
  • Just a reminder that the Design Center is here to help you with this upgrade!
