Non-Duke User Access
Non-Duke students who are officially enrolled in Duke courses, should receive a Duke NetID, automatically receive a Blackboard account and be enrolled in their Blackboard sites. If this hasn’t happened for a student in your class, submit a help request.
For non-Duke persons who are not officially enrolled in your class but still need course access, submit a help request asking that a Blackboard account be set up for that term (include name, e-mail address, affiliation and reason for requiring access). When the account is set up, add the users to your course site.
To add a user to a course site:
- From within the appropriate course, click the Control Panel button at the bottom of the left-hand column of buttons.
- Click on "Add Users" in the User Management section.
- Click on "Enroll Existing User".
- Search for the user by last name or user name.
- Check the box in the Add column for the user(s) to be added.
- Click the Submit button.
Note: The new user will automatically be assigned the role of "Student." To assign the user a different role change the user's role.
