The Digital Learning Cooperative (DLC) is a mechanism for sharing courses between physical Penn State campuses. While the courses being shared are often 100% online, the DLC is not connected with the World Campus in any way. Video courses, hybrid courses, flex courses, and other delivery types are permitted to be shared via the DLC.
The Digital Learning Cooperative website is a seat reservation system used by schedulers at Penn State campuses. One campus serves as the “offering” campus by making spaces in one of its courses available to other campuses to “receive.” Via this seat exchange, campuses can schedule courses for students in residence at other Penn State Campus locations. Each campus controls the schedule of courses made available to students at their campus. For more information, see the Digital Learning Cooperative’s “Frequently Asked Questions.”
