Promoting Distance Learning in Nigeria, the RDI Module - Roland Ogbonnaya, All Africa
At a time when many Nigerian universities cannot take the number of students yawning for tertiary education, a number of them, whose parents have the resources have decided to go abroad for such Golden Fleece. A large number of others who cannot muster the resources are left to sulk for their misfortune. To the ignorance of this set of students many Nigerians are acquiring foreign universities degrees while in the country and spend less of what those who made to, say United Kingdom (UK) are paying in terms of school fees and travelling expenses. To provide students the services and facilities to study for degree programmes of some of these foreign UK universities while working in the country has been the business of Resource Development International (RDI) Nigeria office.... Presently RDI Nigeria partner with a number of UK universities including University of Leicester, Staffordshire University, University of Sunderland and Liverpool JohnMoores University providing distance learning programmes designed to also provide the flexibility and versatility the students require with their busy schedule.
