A Blackboard course is automatically created for every course listed in the schedule of courses at USC that has an instructor/TA listed in the student information system (SIS). However, students don’t have access to the course until you make the course available.

  • Spring courses are automatically created starting on November 15,
  • Summer courses are created starting on March 15, and
  • Fall courses are created starting on April 15.

Copying from a previous semester will save you time and work.
