There are currently (June 2009) three axes of categorisation of each virtual campus programme/initiative.


UNESCO categorisation

We aim to classify each virtual campus as one of the following four types derived from the UNESCO categorisation:

  1. Newly created institution
  2. Evolution of existing institution
  3. Consortium
  4. Private provider


Political scale of initiatives

For any initiative which lies above the level of one or a few institutions, we consider whether it is one of:

  1. National initiatives
