Availability of Achievements Tab in Courses – 3900.108

Blackboard Learn SaaS  
Ultra Course View  
Impact: Instructors and Students 
Updated Topic: Achievements 

We changed the availability of the Achievements tab in courses. The Achievements tab is now hidden from students until the instructor creates and posts Achievements for students to earn. Students will no longer have questions about an Achievements tab if it is not applicable to their courses.

System administrators determine whether Achievements are available for use in courses at the institution-level. System administrators can configure the availability of Achievements in Ultra Experience Management in the Administrator Panel.
