The Trent Teaching Commons is pleased to introduce Ultra Big Shiny Course Drop-In Sessions; offering one-on-one support alongside a newly enhanced and reimagined resource tailored specifically for Blackboard Ultra, as we approach the Fall 2026 deadline for all courses to transition to the new platform.

Tuesdays and Thursdays

11am - 1pm

May and August


Ultra Big Shiny Courses is designed to help instructors refine and polish their Blackboard course sites with expert guidance and hands-on practice. With the shift to Ultra, we've updated this offering to reflect the enhanced features, streamlined interface, and pedagogically powerful tools that Ultra provides making it easier than ever to build intuitive, accessible, and engaging course experiences for your students.

Feel free to drop in to as many sessions as you like to learn more and get prepared for Blackboard Ultra.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at teachingcommons@trentu.ca.


We look forward to supporting you!
