Blackboard users represent a robust and growing community of millions.  Each week, our users post hundreds of questions to independently created Listservs.  And each year there are dozens of user-managed regional meetings throughout the world.  Our goal is to foster greater communication among and between this ever expanding network of users. It’s our hope to serve as a catalyst for collaboration. 

Whether you’re in Higher Ed or K-12, a Blackboard Commerce Suite or a Blackboard Academic Suite client, we encourage you to spend some time with the Blackboard community:

»
Join one of the regional or special interest groups in Connections (formerly CommunitySite)
»
Search through the archives of user Listservs
»
Participate in a user group meeting in your area
»
Find out how you can start your own user group.

Become a part of our growing communities of practice.
