In addition to the excellent support and training provided by your Learning Technologists<\/a> there are also a range of sessions which are provided on a regular basis by Blackboard – the company behind the main product forming the NILE backbone. These sessions are normally free and you can catchup on recordings if you cannot attend the actual events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Northampton does make a few customisations to the ‘out of the box’ product but where possible we do try to keep to the standard layouts which mean that the product training should still be relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You should be aware when looking for training that we are using the Blackboard Learn Ultra Based navigation along with traditional courses. There are a limited number of Ultra Based courses also being piloted. The core communication product is Blackboard Collaborate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst Blackboard sessions run during regular time slots, they are also recorded and these are made available to all delegates who sign up – so don’t let the actual dates of the events put you off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sessions which may be of use are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding the Ultra Experience Series<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparing for the Ultra Course View<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transitioning to remote instruction (From basic to advanced)<\/a>. Past recordings<\/a> from these sessions are also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More events will be added to this list as they become relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please contact your Learning Technologist <\/a>for more information and help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
