Staff
The AVU has 3 categories of staff: 1) core staff in charge of management and administration, 2) project staff and 3) consultants supporting the organization in different capacities (content design and development, instructors, tutors, etc...)
As a virtual institution, the AVU strives to keep a minimum number of staff members working on full time basis in the offices while relying heavily on short term consultants (about 200 between 2009 and 2009). The list below presents the AVU core staff, project staff and a few consultants.
