To copy a prior course into your current or upcoming Blackboard Ultra course shell, please use the Course Copy tool. Please do not try to export and import your prior course.

This FAQ is for importing a course package to your Blackboard course. If you want to import a ZIP file of documents, please reference this FAQ. Prior to importing course content you need to have created an export package of the content from your old Bb course, and saved that ZIP file to your local computer.  See this FAQ for details on that process.

Import package for a Blackboard Original course shell 

Warning

Ultra courses can only accept Ultra course packages. You cannot import an Original course package. 

Make sure that your new shell is ready for import by converting it to the Ultra Experience.

  • Browse your computer for the course export ZIP file.
  • Click Submit.

    • When the import process is complete, you will receive a confirmation email.

    Note

    NOTE: This process can take a substantial amount of time, even AFTER you've received a confirmation email. Be patient. Re-submitting the file will not speed this up and will only result in multiple copies of your course files.

    For support with a course that’s no longer on UMBC’s Blackboard instance or from another institution, please open an RT request.
