Welcome to the Fair Access VLE. Here you will have access to our online learning resources, links to useful information and in some cases, a chat forum for you to connect with others, share your best practice and ask questions.
The Fair Access VLE is the Fair Access department's online learning space, sometimes otherwise known as 'Moodle' or 'Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)'. Many institutions use the same platform for their online learning. We hope that if this is your first time using a Moodle/VLE it will prove valuable in your learning and as a good introduction to other online spaces in your future learning.
Should you have any questions or queries about this space or about any of the resources within, please email fairaccess@rcs.ac.uk with the subject 'VLE Query'.
