Use the migration tool to migrate Blackboard® courses from
Building Block to LTI Advantage with Partner Cloud.
Note Be sure to inform instructors that existing links will not work during the
migration and students' scores might be out of sync after the migration.

Open the Administrator Panel.

Under Cloud Management, click Partner Cloud
Settings.

Click Migrate All Courses with Partner Content.
-

Select courses to migrate to Partner Cloud.
We recommend migrating all courses to prevent instructors from continuing to use Building
Block.
If an instructor copies an old Building Block course, the new course will also use
Building
Block.
To select all courses:
-
In the dropdown next to the search bar, select Not Blank.
-
Click Go.
-
Scroll to the bottom of the list of courses and click Show
All.
-
Select the checkbox at the top of the list.
-
Click Submit.
-
Check the Migration Run Status page for the migration status, number of
courses migrated successfully, and number of courses with failures.
For in progress courses, students' grades might be out of sync after the migration.
Each student's score
will resume regular syncing once they launch a Cengage link.
If there are errors with course migration or courses appear in the pending state for
more than 24 hours,
open a ticket with Blackboard support.
