What is Blackboard?
Blackboard is our online learning and course management system. Your instructors will use Blackboard as a supplement to courses you take in a classroom setting, and as the central meeting location for all online courses. In Blackboard you will find:
- Course documents
- Lecture notes
- Assignments
- Quizzes and tests
- Online chat tools
- Collaboration tools such as whiteboard
Please note that you may not be able to log in to Blackboard until after you have registered for classes. You also may not see courses you are registered for until the beginning of the semester. Instructors are responsible for making courses available for students, so if you do not see a course for which you are enrolled, contact your instructor.
How do you log in?
Use your Student ID as your "Username" to log in, and the same password that you use for your Eagles email and the library databases.
What if you cannot log in?
If you are having problems logging in to Blackboard, make sure you have enrolled your account on the self-service password management website. You will NOT be able to use your temporary password to log in to any Concordia online resource. You must enroll in the self-service site and change your password first. If you have already enrolled, go to the self-service password management website and try resetting your password using the instructions on the website.

Financial Aid, the Registrar, Academic Advising and the other areas on campus will all use this as a primary means of communicating information to you. Please check it regularly. If you wish to, you may set a forwarding email address in your Eagles email so that email can be sent to another email address of your choosing.
