If you would like to receive documentation that you have completed the official Blackboard I faculty training session at ACM, you may do so by taking the ‘Blackboard Proficiency Test” in the “ACM Faculty Resources” course in Blackboard.  If you already have a Blackboard faculty username, you will see this course in your list of Blackboard courses.    If you do not already have a faculty Blackboard username, please request one using the “Course Request Form” link on the Blackboard login page (also see instructions above).  When you receive your username you will automatically be enrolled in the ACM Faculty Resources course.
