Blackboard (Course Resources) undergoes an annual upgrade each year. This takes place in early July and during this time, the University ensures that it is running the most appropriate version of its digital systems. The upgrade typically involves 2 – 3 days of downtime.

Student guides can be found in a module in Blackboard (in the General Resources section) called Student Guide to Course Resources
