iTHEPHY is an EU strategic partnership ERASMUS+ project aiming at developing innovative student-centred Deeper Learning Approaches (DPA) for students enrolled in particle physics master’s degree programmes. This paper describes the iTHEPHY project status and main goals attained, with a focus on a web-based virtual environment developed to support groups of students and teams of teachers during their DPA learning and teaching activities. The platform is described in detail, focusing on the methodologies and technologies which enabled to deliver a modular, user-friendly, open-source, scalable and reusable platform. Identity and Access Management are the building blocks installed for the iTHEPHY project. Different configurations of services in the cloud will be also covered.
