How to Add Multiple Users to Your Course or Organization

Enroll Multiple Users

To enroll more then one user at a time, you need to have a list of usernames. Preferably you can have them in one column in Excel.

First I would like to show you where the enrollments occur.

• • Go to your Course or Organization

  • Click Users & Groups

  • Select Users

  • Click Find Users to Enroll

  • The empty username box is where you can paste a series of usernames, separated by commas.

Here's an Example:

• • Once you have everyone you can click Submit.

Dealing with a Large List in Excel

If you have a large list, it would take a long time to add a comma between every username. You can do this quickly in Excel.

First Make sure you have one column filled with usernames in Excel going vertically.

• • Choose an empty column nearby

  • Double click on the empty space

  • Type in =

  • Click on the first username

  • Type in &

  • Type “,”

• • Click Enter

  • Drag the column down from the corner to apply it to the rest of the accounts.

• • NOTE: Make sure to get rid of the last comma , since this will confuse Blackboard

• • Follow the steps at the top of the guide labeled "Enroll Multiple Users" to reach the area where you can copy and paste all the usernames from your Excel sheet and into your Blackboard course or organization.
