UPDATE: The Fall 2014 course site is back online after less than 2 hours of maintenance.

The legacy UMBC Blackboard site, which currently hosts Fall 2014 courses until they are migrated to our new Blackboard site, will be offline for emergency maintenance from 12-5 pm EST on Wednesday, January 7, 2015. Communities and organizations will also be unavailable during this downtime.

This maintenance period should allow faculty to export older courses from the UMBC Blackboard site without experiencing the known issue with invalid files and import the course content to the new Blackboard site for Spring 2015.

This downtime will not affect Winter 2015 courses as those are hosted on the new Blackboard site now. Faculty, staff & students may access Winter 2015 courses through one of these paths:


Thank you for your patience.

This downtime is during the regularly scheduled maintenance window and is necessary to perform system-wide upgrades, including patches and fixes that need to be applied. DoIT staff will make every effort to keep to this three-hour window to ensure continuity of services; on a rare occasion, however, quality assurance checks may temporarily delay access.
  • Instructors: Please refrain from assigning any work that is due on Blackboard during this maintenance time. When the system is offline, students cannot submit their work.
  • Students: Please be sure to save or submit any work before this time. Any unsaved or unsubmitted work will immediately be lost when the system shuts down.
After Blackboard is back online, please clear your Internet browser cache and cookies before logging in using these step-by-step instructions.

We appreciate your patience as we strive to maintain our systems, especially during our transition to managed hosting.

This downtime is during the regularly scheduled maintenance window and is necessary to perform system-wide upgrades, including patches and fixes that need to be applied. DoIT staff will make every effort to keep to this three-hour window to ensure continuity of services; on a rare occasion, however, quality assurance checks may temporarily delay access.
  • Instructors: Please refrain from assigning any work that is due on Blackboard during this maintenance time. When the system is offline, students cannot submit their work.
  • Students: Please be sure to save or submit any work before this time. Any unsaved or unsubmitted work will immediately be lost when the system shuts down.
