What is ILIAS?

ILIAS [1] is the learning platform of the FH Vorarlberg university of applied sciences. All courses at the FH Vorarlberg are organised via this learning platform. ILIAS is a powerful and flexible tool for digitally supported teaching, learning and collaboration and is widely used both at universities and in companies. Teachers can combine a variety of ILIAS objects in their courses according to individual wishes and needs. In this introduction, you will learn the most important basics of using ILIAS.

  • ILIAS offers a range of tools and functions for the digital support of courses, for example:
  • File management
  • Group mails
  • Forums
  • Submission tool
  • Digital tests and exams
  • Voting (also ‘live voting’)
  • Surveys
  • Creation of online content (as a wiki, blog, ‘online book’, photo gallery, etc.)
  • Collaborative work on text documents (‘Etherpad’)

What is ILIAS not?

Please note: ILIAS does not offer any functions for holding video conferences or IP telephony. Please use Microsoft Teams for these scenarios.
