CIEL.viu.ca Display Issues – Update

CIEL’s website (https://ciel.viu.ca) is continuing to experience some display issues. The site is fully functional, but menus and central landing pages on the site may display a list of links instead of the usual layout.

VIU’s IT department is working to resolve these challenges. We thank you for your patience and apologize for any inconvenience.

If you need support with finding information you would normally look for on our website, or with any of the tools we support including VIULearn, VIUTube, VIUBlogs and Zoom, please contact us by email at learnsupport@viu.ca or call 250-740-6179.

If you experienced “Processing Failed” errors in VIUTube after a Browser Capture recording, your recordings should now have processed successfully. If you are still seeing any lingering challenges, please let us know.

VIUTube – Media Migration

VIUTube media has been migrated to the new platform. Employees should see their media in a folder in Manage Media inside the new platform. 

Students who use VIUTube will need to access VIUTube from the link in the VIULearn navigation bar to trigger the account creation process. Once the account has been created, students can email CIEL to let us know their account has been created and they would like their content migrated to their account. 

Please check your media library by September 15, 2022 to ensure all of your media appears as expected. If you see any discrepancies please contact CIEL as soon as possible with the details of what you expected to see and do not. All media on the old VIUtube platform will be permanently deleted once that service ends on September 30, 2022.

If you have questions about accessing your media or any other element of using the new VIUTube, please contact us at learnsupport@viu.ca so we can assist you.
