The Bulgarian Virtual University (BVU) was launched in 2004 as a a nation-wide portal to Bulgarian higher education institutions and their online learning environments. It followed naturally from the establishment of a nationwide "iUniversity" programme, funded by Bulgaria's Ministry of Transportation and Communications, designed to help Bulgaria implement ICT more effectively in its educational processes. The iUniversity first established 100 computer laboratories for e-learning at Bulgarian universities and research institutions, then established the Bulgarian Virtual University.
BVU's stated mission is:
- ...active and efficient utilization of the properties of ICT to realize the humanistic idea of freely accessible life-long education adapted to the individual needs providing equal opportunities for all Bulgarians, living in or out of Bulgaria, to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for an active life in the information society.
The Bulgarian Virtual University web site is at http://www.bvu-bg.eu/index.php?lng=eng
More details
Little information about BVU is available in English, and problems with its web site as of November 2008 do cast doubt as to its present-day operations.
