VU Collaborate Home


VU Collaborate Home is the first page you will see after logging into VU Collaborate. On this page, you will see a list of your spaces, an events calendar, and various other links.

You can use the waffle to select a delivery space, or search for master spaces by typing the unit code into the search bar under the My Master Spaces search bar. A delivery space is an online collaborative area for teaching and learning in a unit. The Master Space is where you build what will be used in the delivery space such as content, assessments, etc.

There are other types of spaces, such as personal "Sandpit" spaces and Support spaces such as VU Collaborate Essentials . If you do not have access to your Master space(s), please get in contact with the Unit Coordinator or College Manager. VU Collaborate automatically releases delivery spaces to staff two weeks prior to the formal start dates of each teaching period and releases them to students one week prior.
