How do I add another faculty member or TA to my Blackboard course?

You will need to enroll the user into the course using the Add Users by Role tool.

1) In your course, click on Control Panel.

2) Under Course Tools, click on Add Users by Role.

3) Type the faculty member's User Name, or click Browse to search for the User Name. You can search by Username, First Name or Last Name. If the faculty member has an account in Blackboard, you will see their name.

4) Select the User's Role, then click Submit. Roles include: Instructor, Course Builder, Grader, Teaching Assistant, Guest and Student.

Note: If the user is already enrolled in the course, but you need to change their role in the course, you will have to Modify the user using the List/Modify Users link under User Management:

1. Click List/Modify Users.
2. You can Search for the user using Last Name, First Name, or Username. Click Search to locate the user (Click List All>List All to list all users in the course).
3. Click Properties next to the user.
