Getting Help:
- If you need help with an academic issue, it is usually best to use Blackboard Learn's self-contained Course Messages tool to send a private message to the professor within the course or follow specific instructions that your professor may provide for contacting him/her. If you have a non-academic, technical Blackboard related issue you may put in a ticket with the IT Help Desk for additional support.
- Please note that during this time of interruption, NJCU will be providing additional support options for students. Up to date information will be announced on the NJCU Blackboard Landing page in the days to come.
