* Blackboard Collaborate courses are delivered live, real-time (days/times established) using web-conferencing software, Bb Collaborate. Faculty teaching these courses do not have students present with them - all students are "remote." Students needing training can attend on the main campus, at one of the off-site centers and provide their own headset/mic to participate in class or on-line training at Collaborate Training.
