BCCampus was created by the provincial government in British Columbia, Canada, as a "collaborative online learning initiative... to assist public post-secondary institutions in British Columbia to meet their students online learning needs" (see their web site).

It is a co-ordinating service for all educational online programmes, providing funding to institutions for the development of e-learning materials, training and support services to the smaller colleges, and a one-stop portal for students for online programmes.

BCcampus serves the entire public post-secondary system in British Columbia, including students, educators, and institutions by identifying, acquiring, developing, and implementing technologies and services that enhance online learning such as a flexible learning for trades training strategy (E-PPRENTICE) and build on established student services such as an online application service (PASBC).
BCcampus also administers an online program development fund (OPDF), explores and develops shared services, facilitates the dissemination of best practice knowledge, provides professional development and training, and manages a repository of shareable online instructional resources and tools for educators.
