The "Home" button is accessible anywhere within Ilios. In this example, we are on the Courses and Sessions page with the Course "Airways, Blood and Circulation - 2025-2026" having been selected.

After clicking the Ilios home button as shown above, you will be returned to the Dashboard. Mousing over the Ilios logo provides the pop-up caption of "Dashboard". This is shown in the screen shot as well.

Clicking "Home" will return you to the default view on the Dashboard - Week at a Glance.

Using the browser's back button will retain the relative location ("Calendar" or "Materials") you had been accessing previously.

Week at a Glance - Admin View

The view shown below is that of an Ilios user who also performs non-learner functions. That is why the Ilios flyout menu is available with all navigational options available to this user. Global Search is also available.

Mouse-Over

Although this is pointed out in the screen shot at the top of this page, it is worth noting that this action (mouse-over) can be performed anywhere in Ilios if you are wondering what an icon or link means and where you will end up if you click that link.

NAVIGATION TIP The mouse-over presents the destination (target link) of any clickable link. This can be a very helpful navigational aid.
