Let's talk about... 25 years of ILIAS Conference
ILIAS has been with us now for a quarter of a century. That is 25 years of innovation, development and a lively feeling of community. With the theme for this year being "25 Years of ILIAS – With Aplomb Down the Years", the International ILIAS Conference will be returning to its roots: The Helmut Schmidt University of the Bundeswehr in Hamburg, where the very first conference took place.
From an idea to an internationally established open-source learning management system. Today ILIAS is used in the whole D-A-CH area (i.e. the main German-speaking countries of Germany, Austria and Switzerland) and far beyond, in universities, businesses and public authorities. This is also the case at the Helmut Schmidt University, where ILIAS has been a reliable partner in teaching, learning and further education since the end of 2001.
"With Aplomb Down the Years" stands for both consistency and change: ILIAS has not only accompanied technological developments, didactic changes, and social upheavals, but has also actively helped shape them. The strength of the international community, the openness of the system and that fact that we demand quality and sustainability from our platform, all combine to make ILIAS a reliable foundation on which to build digital learning.
The 25th International ILIAS Conference invites you to join us in looking back together, in sharing experiences and developing new perspectives. In Hamburg, we won't just be celebrating an anniversary, we will be writing the next chapter in the history of ILIAS.
