Create your Test Course

All staff Blackboard users have the ability to create one test course. The function can be found in the Tools section of Blackboard.

All test courses will be prefixed with the word ‘TEST’ and end with your username. For example TEST [some text] (ej2-cooper). When you create your test course, you have the opportunity to enter up to 30 characters of text to the course name to help you identify the course, if you wish.
