  7. Gen Net Sections in Blackboard • In order to be assigned a Gen Net course in Blackboard, you will need to have an additional role added to your account in PEAK. I will take care of that  • You will have to toggle between your • Aventa instructor role and your Gen Net • instructor role. • You should only have MI14G sections • in your Gen Net instructor role. Please • contact me if this is not the case. • Due to the nature of these sections, my administrator permissions are different from those I have with our general MI sections. Our service delivery team will be making the assignments per my spreadsheet I send to them. • All MI14G sections will be assigned by next week regardless of enrollments.
