Class Collaborate
Class Collaborate is a video conferencing tool developed for educational purposes. It can be used by staff, students, and external guests.
End of Collaborate availability
The University’s contract with Class Collaborate has now ended. This means that Collaborate will no longer be available in Blackboard courses.
The DEO recommends that Microsoft Teams Classes, which have nearly identical functionality, are used instead. All Blackboard Units have a Microsoft Education menu link to enable the creation of a Unit Team for the course. Please see our Teams guidance.
If you have any questions, please email digital-education@bristol.ac.uk
For alternative video conferencing tools, you can see Synchronous online sessions.
