Pre-made messages for your teachers - With Blackboard's Mass Notifications services, teachers have access to the Teacher Messaging system for quick messaging, which administrators can monitor.
Anytime, anywhere - Administrators also have access to the Blackboard Communications HQ mobile app, allowing messages to be sent from mobile devices.
TCPA Compliancy
Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) issued new rules for the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) to address the growing number of marketing calls. The Blackboard Community Engagement solution follows TCPA regulations. Parents and students will be able to opt-out of non-emergency phone calls and text messages sent by the district or school.
