New £12m programme to support regional e-Learning networks - Public Technology

The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) has announced a new programme which aims to bring the benefits of e-learning to learners and teachers across England. Starting in September, the Distributed e-Learning programme will establish links between schools, colleges and universities to encourage progression into higher education, supporting Government targets for widening participation. The new programme will also exploit and reinforce the increasingly regional dimension of Higher Education as Government-sponsored activities encourage closer working between schools, colleges, universities and the business sector across the regions of the UK.
