Downloading your Blackboard Collaborate recordings

You would have received a couple of messages recently about Blackboard Collaborate recordings. The summary is this:

• The amount of Collaborate recordings has exceeded the storage capacity we have with Blackboard and are being charged overage fees.
• Those fees are costing Douglas College $11,000 per month! 😳
• A very large number of those recordings have never been watched.
• Any Collaborate recordings created before April 30, 2021 will be deleted on November 30, 2021.

What are your options?

• If you don’t care about those recordings, you don’t have to do anything. They will be removed automatically.
• If you have any recordings you would like to save, follow the instructions below.
• If you need assistance, reach out to me before November 30.
