FACULTY: ULTRA: How do I add a user to my course site?

To add a user to your Blackboard Ultra course site, follow these steps:

  • Go to the class Roster from the Content tab on the left.

  • Click Enroll People if no one is enrolled. Otherwise, click the circled plus sign (+) in the upper right hand corner
  • A panel will open on the right-hand side with a search box. In the search box, type a name, or at least two letters to reveal a list of matches. Note that individuals already enrolled won't show in the search results.
  • Select one or more people and a drop down menu will appear below their name. To reverse a selection, select a person's name again.
  • Choose a role for each selected person.
  • Click Save to confirm. The panel closes and you will see the names of the people you added now in the roster.

Note: Users who are unavailable at the system level cannot be enrolled in courses and won't appear in the search results.
