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.
