Integrate an Existing WebAssign Course With Blackboard

If you already created the WebAssign course you want to integrate with Blackboard® — and no students are enrolled — integrate your existing course.

Note Course templates, courses with student enrollments, and courses that are already linked to an LMS can't be linked.
  1. Open your Blackboard course.
  2. Add WebAssign content to your course.
    Blackboard Original
    1. Click Content > Build Content > Cengage Content.
      If the Cengage tool is not shown under Build Content, see Can't Find Cengage Content in Blackboard.
    Blackboard Ultra
    1. Click + > Content Market.
    2. Click Cengage Content under Institution Tools.
      Important If you see a Cengage tool shown under Content Market, do not select it. This is an outdated version of the integration that will be removed soon. Only add the Cengage tool under Institution Tools.

      If the Cengage tool is not shown under Institution Tools, see Can't Find Cengage Content in Blackboard.

  3. If prompted, sign in to your Cengage instructor account to link your Blackboard and Cengage accounts.

    This window might not be shown if your browser does not allow pop-ups for the Blackboard domain.
