Discussion Topic : ISSMGE Virtual University Platform

I have a very exciting announcement! The ISSMGE is pleased to announce the launch of its Virtual University (VU) Platform, a new part of ISSMGE’s cyber-infrastructure. The platform is available at: http://virtualuniversity.issmge.org/

The Virtual University includes, free courses, webinars, as well as short educational videos. Users can view directly any content without enrolling. By registering, users can track their course attendance history, participate in course discussions and receive notification about important updates on each course they are enrolled. You can use the same login as GeoWorld!

ISSMGE is currently working on the second phase of the VU platform that can support the delivery of homeworks and examinations, a capability that is expected to become available by the end of 2020. 

We would like to hear any feedback and comments for this new initiative! Please let us know in the comment below what you think!

Full announcement can also be found on:

I tried to enrol in the course of Earthquake Engineering through ISSMGE app  but it doesn't work with me

Hi Mohammed, I tried it and it worked for me. I used the Virtual University website and not the ISSMGE App. I'm not sure the app supports the VU yet.

Dear Mohammed, currently the ISSMGE mobile app does not support the ISSMGE VU yet. However, you can visit and enroll to any course under the ISSMGE VU, through a regular mobile browser.
