We have walked through the process to create a single course, however we as administrators normally need to create more than one course at a time. This situation requires the use of the batch course creation tool within Blackboard. Before we create our courses using this tool, we must create the file that lists these courses.
The file will be delimited using a comma, tab, or colon to separate the different fields within our file. Using our file, we can add information such as COURSE ID, course name, course description, button style/color, initial announcement, announcement title, and course category. Each of our courses may not require all this information and we can leave some of these items blank. The only items required by our instance are the course id and course name. Here is a sample of a batch course creation file that is comma delimited.
