Announcing Single Sign On for Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Google Apps and Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Blackboard Learn
We are excited to announce that we are improving the way Âé¶¹´«Ã½ users can access core technology services. Starting May 7th, the Single Sign On option used for other services, like Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Online, will be coming to Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Google Apps and Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Blackboard Learn.
What is Single Sign On (SSO?)
Single Sign On is a single, centralized user authentication service, in which Âé¶¹´«Ã½ users can use one browser login session to access any tools, applications, or services that use the same SSO.
What does SSO mean for me?
Users who choose to login to Âé¶¹´«Ã½ services using the SSO option can expect a seamless transition to and from services that also use Âé¶¹´«Ã½ SSO. This currently includes services like Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Online, and soon Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Google Apps and Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Blackboard Learn will also be available with SSO.
For users who will be starting new active sessions with these services, you may notice additional options on your login page. Below is an example of how the Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Blackboard Learn login page may look once SSO becomes available.
