You will need a HRZ account (login
and password) and the role of author to create courses in
OLAT.
How do you receive author privileges
in OLAT?
Please
contact olat@rz.uni-frankfurt.de and
state your HRZ login (not your password!). Your author privileges
will be valid as long as your HRZ account is valid.
If you work as a student assistant (“studentische Hilfskraft") at Goethe
University, you need an extra HRZ account that author privileges will be
bound to. You can get a new account at the Goethe-Card Service. Please have
your identity documents ready. After the account has been created, it may take
up to several hours for the account to become active on the OLAT platform.
Please contact us after your new, separate HRZ Account has been created, so we
can assign author privileges.
Integrating your course into the OLAT catalogue
Please send us the following links
via email after having created your course:
The link to the OLAT course.
The link to the course in QIS/LSF to which the OLAT course belongs.
We will then integrate your course
in the OLAT catalogue according to the paths in QIS/LSF. This makes it easy for
students to find the course. The OLAT catalogue (course offerings) always
displays the courses from the current semester.
When integrating a course, we also
check whether the course is technically accessible.
