The Mini Campus, located in Ago-Iwoye, is one of the university’s five campuses and now serves as the dedicated home of the Centre for Continuing Education and Development (CCED). Together with the Main Campus and the Ayetoro, Ibogun, and Sagamu campuses, it forms part of OOU’s multi-campus system designed to bring education closer to communities.
The Mini Campus provides a supportive environment where part-time and professional learners can pursue higher education while balancing work and personal commitments. Originally one of the earliest sites used by OOU in its formative years, the Mini Campus has since evolved into a specialised centre for CCED programmes. It is a vibrant campus within the Ago-Iwoye township, easily accessible to students from across Ogun State and neighbouring regions.
Today, it is the focal point for flexible learning opportunities, including Weekend Part-Time, Weekday Part-Time, Pre-Degree/JUPEB, and Advanced Certificate programmes, which together attract a diverse population of learners.
