Southern Regional Education Board's Electronic Campus (www.electroniccampus.org) has been designed as a gateway to e-learning opportunities and online services designed to meet the unique needs of adult learners wishing to start, continue, or complete their education. Students are able to complete coursework electronically and may not need to leave their hometowns or campuses. By using the Electronic Campus, students obtain information over the Internet about each course and program and know the standards that the colleges and universities have pledged to meet for these distance learning programs and courses. The purpose of the Principles of Good Practice is to identify the expectations and requirements for participation in the Electronic Campus. Each institution that seeks to offer an electronically delivered program or course will be asked to ensure that it complies with these principles. This paper provides an overview of the Principles of Good Practice.
