Announcing Single Sign On for »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµGoogle Apps and »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµBlackboard Learn

We are excited to announce that we are improving the way »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµusers can access core technology services. Starting May 7th, the Single Sign On option used for other services, like »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµOnline, will be coming to »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµGoogle Apps and »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµBlackboard Learn.

What is Single Sign On (SSO?)

Single Sign On is a single, centralized user authentication service, in which »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµusers 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 »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµservices using the SSO option can expect a seamless transition to and from services that also use »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµSSO. This currently includes services like »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµOnline, and soon »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµGoogle Apps and »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµBlackboard 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 »Æ¹ÏÊÓÆµBlackboard Learn login page may look once SSO becomes available.
