Vermont Virtual Learning Cooperative

The Vermont Virtual Learning Cooperative (VTVLC) coordinates the efforts of Vermont public schools to offer online classes using an online Learning Management System (LMS) and is funded by the Vermont Department of Education.

FLEXIBILITY: Student are able to enroll in a VTVLC course that may be offered at their own school, but due to a scheduling conflict, may have to make a choice about what course to take. VTVLC courses allow the student to work in the course when their schedule allows, even before or after school. Students no longer have to make difficult decisions about whether to take band or physics!

VARIETY: Students also have more courses to choose from than what would be typically offered at their own school. It is not always feasible for districts to offer specialty courses like AP Calculus, AP Statistics, certain honors courses and specialty electives. VTVLC coordinates with schools to find what courses would best fit the needs of their students and works with other schools that are offering the course to find solutions and provide access. As an example, a school that offers AP Environmental Science may only have 7 or 8 students at their location desiring to enroll in the course, while the remaining seats go empty. VTVLC helps schools all around Vermont to offer their courses to students in other school districts.

VTVLC is working to provide learning options such as the Virtual Summer School.
