Blackboard will undergo scheduled maintenance on Thursday, 2nd January 2025, during which the platform and its integrated services will be temporarily unavailable for six hours from 1:00am - 7:00am GMT.
Once the maintenance is complete, IT Services will conduct comprehensive testing to ensure that all Blackboard services are operating as expected.
Which services will be affected?
Blackboard Learn VLE and integrated services, including Turnitin, Panopto, and Collaborate, will be unavailable during this maintenance window. Additionally, some other minor systems you may use, such as Matlab Grader and Talis MyReadingList, will also be unavailable during this time.
How will this impact me?
We understand this is an inconvenience, so we have made a significant effort to minimise the impact on you by scheduling this work during a predicted low usage period.
Please plan ahead as Blackboard and all affected services will be unavailable during the maintenance period.
