Log in to Blackboard using the credentials provided by the institution.
Type your username and password in the corresponding fields.
Single sign-on (SSO)
The Institution uses single sign-on (SSO) to authenticate users in Blackboard. With single sign-on, you can access multiple applications after logging in to just one. These applications are configured to trust one another and share your authentication within a single session.
When you log out of a single sign-on session, Blackboard will prompt you to decide whether you want to end all related sessions or continue. If you do not take any action, the system will terminate all sessions after two minutes. To continue your session, log in again.
Change Password
To change or update your password, click the “Forgot Password?” link on the Blackboard login page. In the new window, update your password by filling in the appropriate fields.
Reset/ Unlock Password
To be able to reset your Network/Blackboard password or unlock your account in the future, you must first activate the SysAid Password Self‑Service option within the SysAid Helpdesk platform.
This step is required if:
- You have forgotten your password, or
- Your account has been locked due to multiple unsuccessful login attempts.
Once activated, the Self‑Service feature will guide you through the steps to reset your password or unlock your account.
