Blackboard - User Accounts

The diagram below explains the three sources from which accounts are automatically created on Blackboard:

1. All registered students have accounts generated from the main Student Records system.
2. For staff, accounts are automatically created from the Human Resources database (Core HR)
3. For adjunct faculty, you can request temporary "e" accounts from Computer Services (see http://www.nuigalway.ie/cs/staff/support/tempaccounts.html).

I need more information about how to get an account
