WDI’s Global Virtual Learning Center (GVLC) builds workplace skills, creates international linkages, and promotes economic growth in low and middle-income countries.
The GVLC builds upon WDI’s success as a provider of virtual learning. From virtual exchange programs like M²GATE — which connected 545 undergraduate students from 5 countries — to certificate skills programs in areas like team building and entrepreneurship to professional training programs for companies like Dell, we use virtual methods to support learners and build their skillsets for the future.

WDI is inviting undergraduate students in Michigan, as well as Egypt, Libya and Morocco, to participate in a dynamic new extracurricular program. This online certificate program will bring together students from across the state and the ocean to identify climate-related challenges and develop business concepts to address them. In the eight-week, no cost program, participants will explore entrepreneurial opportunities to create meaningful impact.
We leverage the resources of the University of Michigan, a leading U.S. research university.
We draw on a global network of university partners and other organizations.
Our programs utilize ExtendEd, a proprietary portal optimized for virtual learning.
We have experience developing e-learning and implementing large scale virtual programming.
The GVLC designs and delivers virtual programs and services, including:
Advisory services for institutions interested in virtual programming.
Management services and expertise in virtual exchange (technology-enabled, sustained, people-to-people education programs) and other online program models (including: geographically dispersed, classroom to classroom, and others).
Development and consultation on curriculum for virtual learning and online pedagogy.
