University of Calgary ID (UCID) Assignment at First Point of Contact
• University of Calgary ID’s (UCID’s) are the primary ID’s assigned across the campus, enabling various privileges and services for students
• Various departments across campus issue UCID’s – risk of student receiving multiple UCID’s
• Implementation of a new registration system in 2008 identified the opportunity to streamline the UCID assignment process, allowing for immediate assignment of a UCID the same time a new student profile is created (for telephone/walk-in registration) or next business day (Web-based registration)

UofC Continuing Education Student Access to Blackboard Via Auto-Populate Feature
• Blackboard (Bb) is the campus-wide platform for distance education (DE)
• Populating Bb with class lists was once a manual upload process. Twice a day, a staff member would generate the data file and post it to the Bb server.
• Auto-population of Cont Ed Bb courses established in 2009 via batch job generates the data file and posts to Bb every hour on the hour.
• Bb authentication is achieved by referencing credentials back to our registration system dbase
• For late registrants, we can assign them a UCID/pswd and have them populating into Bb within an hour of when they register

U of C Continuing Education Student Access to Online Library Resources
• Continuing Education students are not registered via the PeopleSoft credit registration system, thus have been unable to access library online services
• The Library is refining their authentication interface to allow Cont Ed students to access the on-line resources
• Students authenticate their UCID & Pswd against our registration system dbase
