Welcome to the American Philatelic Society's Virtual StampCampus -- www.stampcampus.org -- where we're dedicated to growing stamp collectors. Nearly everyone wants to learn more about the hobby, from the casual collector who occasionally buys stamps at the local post office, to the adult who's just discovered (or rediscovered) the hobby, to the philatelist with special interests.

Our goal: to offer fun, challenging courses that combine the best features of distance education and online technology. Here at the APS StampCampus that translates into small, personalized classes, lessons that aren't buried in hobby jargon, and courses that won't demand expensive equipment, software, or materials. Each course will be directed by one or more knowledgeable instructors, with opportunities for interactive discussions in our online chat groups.

Please browse through our website, try our demo lesson, register your interests, and let us know how we can help you grow in the hobby.
