 The Virtual Management Campus (VMC) is a pilot project, which has the support of the Région wallonne and the Fonds Social Européen.
It is run by means of a new partnership
between the three leading institutions of
higher education in the French-speaking
Community:
the Solvay Business School (ULB),
HEC Liege and the Institute
for Management
and Administration (IAG-UCL).
Together,
their aim to take advantage of developments
taking place in training methodologies
and new technologies in the fields
of
information and communication.
The SBS, HEC and IAG have
defined their vision for the VMC based
on three principles:
- the acquisition of expertise and
preparation for fundamental change
in university education;
- a strong and credible presence in
international teaching projects at
distance;
- the development of inter-university
collaboration that generates global
capabilities, supported by a critical
mass of financial means.
The objective is clear: the Virtual
Management Campus, accessible at
distance, allows participants to attend
courses accoding to their own needs,
taking either a single course or a
number of courses that together form
a complete programme, with or without
a diploma at the end.
To achieve this objective the consortium
set up a project team in March 2002.
The team comprises a project leader
and a teaching consultant, specialised
in educational technology and distance
learning. Representatives of at least
two of the partner institutions coordinate
each learning module.
This project should enable us to
have eight workable modules finalised
by the end of 2006 and to identify
the phases involved in an on-line
course, so as to provide guidelines
for appropriate methods of work.
Here are the modules
that are currently under development or in finalisation process:
- Introduction to marketing (Jean-Pierre
Baeyens, Claire Gruslin, Jean Tondeur,
Isabelle Schuiling);
- Introduction to accounting (W. Niessen, M. De Wolf, S. de Patoul);
- Supply chain management (Robert Nondonfaz, Pierre Semal)
- Enterpreunal Strategy (Paul Verdin, Steve Nysten, Alain Vas, Michel Schoobroodt);
- Organisational change and Entrerpreunal Strategy (François Pichault, Jean Nizet);
- E-business (Renauld Delhaye, Olivier de Wasseige);
- Introduction to Finance (Eric de Keuleneer);
- Human resources management (Michel Verstraeten);
- Preparation seminar for the role of manager (Jean-Marie Dujardin).
