Online learning - VU Collaborate
At VU, we encourage and support online learning so to ensure our students are having a great experience, we have implemented an exciting new learning management system (LMS) called VU Collaborate.
Using VU Collaborate you can:
- view content and materials related to your studies
- upload and conduct assessments online, such as assignment submission and quizzes
- communicate and collaborate with your peers, tutors and instructors
- stay up to date with your learning progress.

Logging in to VU Collaborate
We recommend that you use Google Chrome as the preferred browser.
Use MYVU Portal to login to VU Collaborate.
Log in with your "s" number (s1234567) and your AD login password (ie: same as computer and email login).

Access units or online spaces
All students will have access to a Student Induction Space.
The Student Induction Space allows you to try out VU Collaborate as a student and learn more about the common tools that can support you in your studies.
Access to other units or online spaces will be based on whether your unit or course is currently using VU Collaborate – if you are unsure, ask your lecturer or teacher.
