Tips for Importing

Each publisher Course Cartridge is different and each cartridge imports into

Blackboard differently. We recommend, if you can, to download any new Course

Cartridge into a development course area (zzz_course) in order to view and test

the cartridge before adding it to your actual course.

If you are unsure about how to import, or what the limitations maybe for

your course cartridge please contact the Distance and Online Learning

Help Desk to arrange an appointment to work with someone.

DLhelp@hvcc.edu or 518-629-7070.
