BPP's Virtual Campus

BPP has its very own 'BPP Community' platform or as we like to refer to it – 'The Virtual Campus'.  

This platform is nearing around 30,000 users and is growing every day. The platform is already used by the Education Services teams, Heads of Law, and most recently Business School Programme Support, however, most importantly it is used by our student body across BPP. 

This platform is a great way to stay connected with the latest happenings from staff, students and alumni which is why we're encouraging students to join. The Virtual Campus has an events board signposting students to all events happening across the BPP group, resources for wellbeing and accommodation as well as updates from teams across BPP. Signing up is easy and can be done in a few steps.

You can access the Virtual Campus through your desktop or phone. You can even download the app through Google Play or the App store. You can sign up with your LinkedIn, Google or email account.
