iQualify overview

What is iQualify?

iQualify is Open Polytechnic’s own proprietary learning management system (LMS).

It allows courses to be created, published and offered to students.

The user’s view and access to various aspects of the system will vary according on their role.

As an learning designer (LD) you will typically have LEARN and CREATE roles, allowing you to both create a course and see courses from a student perspective.

Changing between roles is a simple as selecting a role from the options at the top right of the iQualify home page, as highlighted below.

There are other roles such as FACILITATE and MANAGE for course facilitators and administrators respectively.

As this guide is aimed at course creators (also known as ‘builders’ and ‘authors’), we’ll be focusing on this role and the view of iQualify through the CREATE tab.

iQualify levels

The iQualify authoring environment can be thought of as having three levels.
