While many features will feel familiar to your Blackboard experience, some things will look different or use new names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most students will begin using Canvas from <strong>January 2027<\/strong> for units that commence in 2027. Until then, you will continue using Blackboard for your studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students who are impacted by the early transition to Canvas will be contacted by email and will predominantly be studying units that begin in 2026 and finish in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blackboard will convert to <strong>read-only on 1 January 2027<\/strong>. You will be able to access material until 31 December 2027. You\u2019ll continue to access Blackboard via OASIS and you will be able to select and download material and submitted work as normal.
