Introduction This mini-guide aims to facilitate the use of Espace Virtuel after the update on 20 September 2023. From now on, you will find an information panel that allows direct access to groups, tasks and content, as well as a new way of creating task assignments.

We hope that you will find this useful and that you will have enough information about the changes in the new interface. In time we will create a complete guide that will allow you to make the most of the possibilities of Espace Virtuel.

If you don’t find the answer to any of your questions, you can send them to us through this form.
