To access the content of an institution correctly, you need a confirmed account of the respective institution. The rights related to your account are what gives you proper access to the content and functions of courses and groups.

Request a login for external lecturers and students

Users, guest lecturers, exchange students, etc. who need access to the learning platform as part of a higher education activity can apply for a standard login at the competent university computer centre.

Request a login for other external users (VHO access)

For other colleagues, students, etc. without any status at a university, it is also possible to apply for access to the learning platform OPAL.

This is done by sending the filled-in application form to the system operator BPS Bildungsportal Sachsen GmbH in the context of the service offer "Virtual Home Organisation" (VHO).
