Blackboard Integrates MyEdu Profiles into Learn

Blackboard, which in January acquired the college and career planning service MyEdu, on Monday revealed how it will include the online tool in its products. MyEdu's student profiles will now become a part of Blackboard Learn, giving students a dedicated profile page within the learning management system, called the Enhanced Cloud Profile, where they can display their achievements and skills to potential employers. In a press release, Blackboard CEO Jay Bhatt described the digital portfolio as a replacement for the resume, which he said "is on its way out."
