Blackboard Collaborate is a webinar/web conferencing program designed with educational use in mind. Blackboard can tailor the webinar solution options to specific business, government, or educational institutional webinar needs.

Collaborate allows you to create and schedule sessions for your webinar from within the interface. From here you can set up roles for participants beforehand, or make adjustments during the session. Blackboard does point out that the session links are generally long, so you may want to use a url shortener to make it easier for your participants to join.

One of the nice features of the software is that your participants can connect from most devices with a web browser. Chrome and Firefox are recommended for the best experience. The software is designed to be web based and doesn’t make use of Javascript. This can be helpful with reducing issues that your participants may have with connecting to your webinar.
