Blackboard is going on tour!

We’re traveling all across North America looking to meet you—the educators, technologists and leaders that share our passion for making the educational experience the best it can be. The teams that design and build the tools you use everyday are jumping at the chance to meet and collaborate on what matters to you, where you are.

The Never Stop Learning tour is also a unique opportunity to plug into your community and engage with fellow Blackboard users in your region. Transfer knowledge and come away with all the answers to your most pressing questions.

Our next stop is in Los Angeles, California at the California Blackboard User Group Conference at Loyola Marymount University! We invite you to join us for this free, one-day event to:

Connect with other Blackboard users in your area
Learn about the latest in new features in Blackboard
Ask questions or share feedback with Blackboard product experts

Looking forward to seeing you and your colleagues in April!
