What do I need to do to begin using Blackboard?
You can login into Blackboard at any time. If any of the instructors from the classes you are enrolled in have setup the class in Blackboard, you will see the class listed under My Courses on the Home page.

Your username and password are the same as your username and password for your ForUM account.

Contact the Technology Services Help Desk by calling (205) 665-6520 or via email at helpdesk@montevallo.edu if you need assistance.
 

Can I change my account information?
Your Blackboard account information needs to match the information in Banner.  If you need to change your name, please refer to Address and Name Change on the Record Office web page.
