What is my username?
Actually, the correct question is "what are my user names?" Instructors have two different usernames for BlackBoard. One is for you as an instructor. The other is a "student" login, which allows you to see what your course looks like for your students.
Instructor ID
Your instructor ID is the same as your network logon at Highline. It will be the first letter of your first name, followed by the first seven letters of your last name. For details and examples, see the IC Help page on faculty and staff usernames.
Initial passwords will either be provided at your orientation, or you can use the "Forgot Password" feature to get your password.
Student ID
Your student ID allows you to see how your courses will look to students. The username follows the pattern that all student users follow. It will be the first seven letters of your first name, followed by the first seven letters of your last name. For details and examples, see the IC Help page on student usernames.
Initial passwords will either be provided at your orientation, or you can use the "Forgot Password" feature to get your password. Remember to use your student username when filling out the Forgot Password form for your student account!
