The Virtual University of Pakistan develops its courses by utilizing the services of the best services of the best available professors in the country. The University owns and operates its four channels VTV-1, VTV-2, VTV-3 and VTV-4. These free-to-air channels may be received by using a simple digital receiver and solid dish antenna of 6-8 feet diameter. Several cable operators also carry these channels nationwide and more are expected to do so in the near future. Students attend their lectures either at Virtual Campuses or from home. Interaction amongst students or between students and their teachers happens over the internet. Students registered at Virtual Campuses are provided computer & internet facilities while those studying from home have access to computer with an internet connection at home. A comprehensive Learning Management System (LMS) running on the Virtual University's servers allows access to study materials round the clock over the internet. A custom developed Moderated Discussion Board (MDB) within the LMS allows students to interact effectively with their tutors. All assignments are handed and submitted through the LMS and access to all relevant reading material is also provided on-line. In addition to broadcast over the University's television channels, video lectures of all course are also available on multimedia CDs/DVDs at a nominal cost through the Virtual University Book Shop
( [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] ). The CDs/DVDs enable students to review lessons at any time and at their own pace. Printed lecture handouts/notes are also available at nominal cost to students.

Examinations are conducted by Virtual University in a formal proctored atmosphere. Exams centers are announced, examiners and invigilators appointed and then examinations are conducted either electronically or off-line at these centers in a strictly proctored
