HuskyCT Transition to Cloud Services

HuskyCT is moving to Blackboard’s cloud-based architecture between December 25 and January 1. We are making this change because system updates, such as new features, enhancements, and fixes, can be implemented with zero or minimal downtime, and this will ultimately enhance students’ and your experience with our learning management system. During the transition, course availability will be affected (see timeline below). After the transition, HuskyCT will look and function the same.

December 26, 2016 – January 1, 2017:

  • Winter intersession courses will be accessible throughout the transition.  The only downtime for these courses will be on January 1, 2017 between 5:00 am and 1:00 pm.
  • Past courses will remain available for reference purposes, however any changes made after December 25 will not be carried forward to the new environment. (i.e. you can view them but do not make any changes)
  • Spring 2017 courses will be unavailable

January 1, 2017:

  • All HuskyCT courses, including Winter intersession courses, are accessible after 1:00 pm at learn.uconn.edu, lms.uconn.edu, and huskyct.uconn.edu.
