Course Access

Blackboard at KUMC

Approximately two weeks before the first day of class at KU Medical Center, you will receive one of three emails depending on your current KUMC student status:

If this is your first course through KUMC, a new account will be created. You will receive an initial email from tlt@kumc.edu with instructions on how to open a secure email, followed by the secure email which will provide your login instructions and the title of the course(s) you are enrolled in.
If you have taken a course through KUMC and your account is still active, usually having taken a course within the past year, you will receive an email from tlt@kumc.edu informing you of the course(s) you are enrolled in, your username, and who to contact if you forgot your password.
If you have taken a course through KUMC before and it has been a year or longer, your account will most likely need to be reactivated. You will receive a secure email from accountmanagement@kumc.edu with your login instructions.

Courses may not be visible to students until the first day of class.
