The high computational simulation has allowed to create virtual atmospheres so that an individual can interact with them and to feel the reality as if it happened in a true environment. This article pretends reflecting about the latent reality of the situation in the academic training of Higher Education, and population with some special learning needs (blind, deaf, limited vision, those of poor hearing, those who have lost physical mobility, those with cognitive limitations, Down syndrome, autism, short stature and many other forms of disability), which are participating in these virtual atmospheres (instructors, students). Also, for this particular population, the design, structure, scheme and ethical aspects that an accessible learning virtual campus should have will be analized, in order to attend people with some physical or intellectual disability
