RESOLVED – Known Issue: Section Maintenance Tool

Update, Tuesday, August 17 at 4:15 PM:

The Blackboard Learn Section Maintenance tool is now functioning. Instructors wishing to combine two or more Blackboard courses should clear their browser’s cache before using the tool and contact CIT with any remaining questions or issues (please include the course registration number (CRN) of each course you are attempting to combine in your request). Note that there may be a delay in assigning newly created supersections to the correct term.


Update, Monday, August 16 at 4:25 PM:

The Blackboard Learn Section Maintenance tool typically accessible via the Faculty/Academic tab in myBama is not functioning correctly. Until this issue is resolved, instructors wishing to combine two or more Blackboard courses must contact CIT to request the creation of supersections. Please include the course registration number (CRN) of each course you wish to combine in your request.


As of Monday, August 16, at 8:15 AM, CIT is aware of ongoing issues with the section maintenance tool, particularly with the combining of Blackboard Learn sections. Instructors may not be able to combine courses right now. We are working on the issue and will update this notice once the issue is repaired.
