  • Online
  • Face-to-Face
  • Customized group sessions

Please send an e-mail to ecourses@calumet.purdue.edu to schedule training

Need help moving your material, check out the short training videos and help sheets, which will show you how to move material around in Blackboard.  If you need still need assistance please send an e-mail to ecourses@calumet.purdue.edu or call the OIT at 219.989.2873.

Import content from file:

This feature allows you to import content from a publisher or outside material.  We do not recommend that you try this before contacting our office.  Import outside material can be difficult and we would not want you to loose any material in the process.  If you have material from a publisher, please send us an e-mail at ecourses@calumet.purdue.edu and we can work with you to set up the material.
