In September 2024, CDLE upgraded the university's digital learning environment to Blackboard Learn Ultra.
From Autumn semester 24/25, all online modules feature the new Blackboard Ultra layout.
Blackboard Ultra’s simplified structure and streamlined interface complies with accessibility standards and facilitates access on mobile devices. Blackboard Ultra will provide a more intuitive, streamlined interface, enhancing the student experience and reducing the complexity of staff workflows.
