On May 10, 2026, the Blackboard login page changed to provide login paths for UA users and non-UA users to access their Blackboard courses.
What does this mean for you?
Access Blackboard via direct URL
If you access Blackboard via https://ualearn.blackboard.com or the Blackboard mobile app, the login page will have a new look. Users should select the appropriate button: Login with myBama ID or All Other Users Login.
- Login with myBama ID: Select this option if you are faculty, staff, or student at UA. This option will direct you to the new UA login page where you will enter your UA email address and password. After you sign in, you will be directed to Blackboard.
- All Other Users Login: Select this option if you do not have a UA email address and need to access Blackboard for a non-degree program or as a guest. Username and password fields will appear. Enter the username and password provided to you to access Blackboard.
Access Blackboard via myBama
The myBama login experience has a new look and feel. If you access Blackboard through myBama, you will now use your UA email address and password to login. Once you are signed in to myBama, you can still access Blackboard by selecting Blackboard on the Quick Links menu.
