Exploring the Great Chances of Partnerships for Distance Learning

Programs
Distance Learning is now familiar term and technology in different Universities whether national or
international of its kind. In the technology driven world, it is the best suited opportunities to reveal the
relevance of education in the sector. Highlighted with the inter-networked computing and video
interactions, it is well accepted by the people of all kinds to get advanced in their education. With a rich
impact in promoting education, it has led to rapid growth in distance learning in the early ages.

How Significant are the Learning Opportunities in Distance & Online Programs
With advances in multimedia and communication technologies, distance education is being adopted by
corporations as well as universities. The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) defines distance
education as "education or training courses delivered to remote (off-campus) location(s) via audio, video
(live or prerecorded), or computer technologies.
Accreditation is very important!!!
Some of the (but not limited to) holding accreditations for the Online Programs include the following:

IADL (International Association for Distance Learning, United Kingdom)

ICDE (International Council for Open and Distance Education)
Global Universities in Distance Education (GUIDE Association)

Technological Challenges for Online Education

Educators are not of one mind about distance learning. Some celebrate the potential to expand access
to higher education to lifelong learners not well served by traditional place-bound courses. Others
welcome the opportunity to enrich education for both on- and off-campus students by leveraging
computers and networks to create a new, more active more student-centered pedagogy. Still others
view distance learning as evidence of a regressive trend toward the automation of higher education and
the commercialization of the academy.
To ensure the successful operation of distance education systems, computer facilities and network
infrastructures must be integrated with appropriate software systems.
