What are the special characteristics of managing single-mode institutions?

With the sole purpose being distance education, these institutions dedicate all their management structures to that end. All teaching and administrative activities and all funds are devoted exclusively to distance education. These institutions generally have no campus; instead, students use a system of local and regional study sites. Courses are usually designed by course teams.
