For Administrators Only: Merging 2-4 sections of an instructor's course is one of the most common service tickets that is received in the CITAL project through the JIRA ticketing system, particularly at the beginning of a semester and near the end of a semester, as this is the window that most instructors take advantage of to prepare for upcoming classes.
In this example, the request is to merge sample_course_sections 1 & 2 into sample_course_ section 3.
Special Notes:
Section 3 will be referred to as the Parent course and sections 1 & 2 will be referred to as the Child courses.
After sections 1 & 2 (Child courses) have merged into section 3, they will no longer be available to the instructor or students.
They will only have access to the (Parent course) section 3.
From the Blackboard Administrator Panel, in Courses, Search for and locate the courses to merge.
Hover the mouse over the right side of the COURSE ID 333333, then Click the Down-Arrow
Click the Down-Arrow to display the Options Menu
Click Edit on the Options Menu

In this example, the request is to separate sample_course_sections 1 & 2 from being merged with sample_course_ section 3.
Click the Down-Arrow on a Child Course to display the Options Menu the then Select Separate
On the Separate page, Select the option Remove Parent Enrollments, then Click Submit to proceed
