Florida Distance Learning Consortium

The Florida Distance Learning Consortium FDLC is a network of all public (39) and private (27) post secondary institutions in Florida serving a total of 1.3 million students annually. These institutions range in size from fewer than 2000 to over 100,000 students. The FDLC is funded by the Florida legislature and supports its member institutions in their delivery of e-Learning through support for student and web services, faculty development, statewide licensing, and sharing resources, including a learning object repository-- The Orange Grove—and an online catalog of over 10,000 distance learning courses offered by membership institutions throughout Florida.

The FDLC facilitates cross-institutional communication and spearheads statewide initiatives in Distance Learning. Recognizing the autonomy of Florida’s educational institutions, the Consortium relies on the voluntary participation of its members to coordinate its activities.. There is no charge for membership.
