Welcome to the Blackboard e-Education platform—designed to enable educational innovations everywhere by connecting people and technology.
Dear HU Community,
Please be aware that Blackboard Learn will be sunset at the end of the month. This means Blackboard Learn will no longer host course and community sites for Howard University. Students will no longer have login access to the Blackboard Learn site after December 31, 2022 at 8PM ET.
Canvas will replace Blackboard Learn as the official learning management system (LMS). Only registered students and faculty will have access to Canvas (https://canvas.howard.edu).
Faculty should access the Canvas Training Opportunities page for resources and to schedule training in the new LMS. The Canvas Support Hotline can also be reached at 1-877-686-8251 or chat with a live representative at the Chat with Canvas Support - Faculty.
Students should use the links below to prepare for using Canvas during the Spring 2023 semester and beyond.
Note: If you are enrolled in a lot of courses, when you log into Blackboard, you may need to click the right-hand corner of the MY COURSES box, check off GROUP BY TERM, and click SUBMIT in order to see your most recent courses.
Mobile app available on Apple Store and Google Play.
BlackBoard Mobile App is also available on the Howard Mobile App.
