The Vermont Virtual Learning Cooperative (VTVLC) is an organisation developed through a partnership of public schools which is funded by a grant provided by the Vermont Department of Education. It is located in the US state of Vermont. The programme enables students to take classes not available at their local schools, or not available at a time during which they can attend them.

VTVLC offered 18 supplemental courses to 300 students in fall 2010.

The VTVLC coordinates the efforts of Vermont public schools to offer online classes. In addition, a broad range of professional development activities are offered to prepare teachers to meet the challenges of teaching in an online environment.

Schools that provide teachers and online classes are able to access other courses being offered through VTVLC from around the state with no exchange or loss of tuition dollars.

The Vermont Virtual Learning Cooperative web site is at http://www.vtvlc.org/

More Details

The VTVLC is managed by Vermont's River Valley Technical Center School District in partnership with Springfield School District, Burlington School District, Community College of Vermont, Marlboro College Graduate School, and Learning Network of Vermont.
