University of Liverpool aims at 10,000 students for online degree courses - James Mortleman, VNunet

The University of Liverpool is to become Europe's largest provider of online degree courses following the acquisition of its e-learning partner by global higher education specialist Sylvan Learning Systems. As part of its buy-out of Amsterdam-based KIT eLearning earlier this month, Sylvan signed a 10-year agreement with Liverpool to significantly increase the university's online course offerings and expand student access. Paul Leng, Professor of e-learning at the University of Liverpool, said: "Under this agreement we're aiming at a target of 10,000 online students, which we expect to be able to achieve well within the 10-year time frame."
