Early in 2006 Blackboard purchased WebCT. Many of the WebCT developers and others were offered positions at Blackboard and it was promised that the just launched WebCT Campus Edition 6 and Vista 4 learning systems would be combined with the Blackbaord Academic Suite over time. The products continue to converge, although we do not have information on when a complete convergence will be completed. Administrative, development, and support operations have combined.
WebCT Campus Edition has been renamed to Blackboard Learning System CE Enterprise. For now the renamed WebCT CE product continues to be developed and supported.
UTMB also maintains an original Blackboard system for the SAHS CLS program, so it is important to differentiate the Blackboard CE 6 system from the CLS server.
