NOTE: Your browser may display certificate warnings or errors when accessing the new Blackboard servers if the UMS CA certificate has not yet been accepted. This can be done with most browsers by going to The UMS CA certificate page, clicking on the download link and following the prompts to trust the certificate for web sites. On many browsers, you may also have the option of choosing to accept the web pages and ignore the certificate errors; this will result in having to go through this step every time Blackboard is accessed.
Blackboard 7.1 is available for summer session users at https://bb71.courses.maine.edu/.
Blackboard 8 is now available as the "current" Blackboard server at its usual address: https://www.courses.maine.edu/.
