EADTU - European Association of Distance Teaching Universities
 

Membership

The EADTU was established in January 1987. It has grown to be an association of 31 national members representing 25 European countries.

EADTU's membership is of diverse nature, but could be roughly divided into two categories: there are the autonomous degree granting universities, teaching solely at a distance on one hand. On the other hand there are organisations which are consortia, joint ventures or other groupings of institutions or departments of institutions.

Expansion of membership
During the years to come EADTU aims to extend the membership further in Central and Eastern Europe through the (national) contact points, by encouraging universities involved in ODL and e-learning to join in national associations, thus enabling them to become members of EADTU.
