Coaching Trouble? Here are some hints and tips.
Don't Use Google Chrome
Google chrome does not support Blackboard Collaborate, or the Blackboard course management system, for that matter.
Switch to or update your Firefox:

Or update to the most recent version of Internet Explorer:

P.S.: I recommend Firefox!
Update your java
You will need the most recent version of Java installed to use Blackboard Collaborate.
