Blackboard
Blackboard ULTRA is the platform Pierpont uses to house course information for each course. In-person, online, and hybrid classes will all use Blackboard, so it is important that you know the basics before classes start. Your classes will not show up in Blackboard until the first day of classes so this is a great way to explore the platform - penalty free!
Check out the Blackboard Learn App!
Students can download the Blackboard Learn app on their smartphones to keep up with homework and deadlines on the go!
The app contains the same features and functions listed in the first Blackboard video. Watch the video below for an App Tour.
