Online Course: Communication Skills for Open, Distance and Flexible Learning (from 27 June, 2022)

Online Workshop on Policy and Planning for Open Distance and Flexible Learning (June 28 – July 21)
COL is organising three inter-related online workshops with ministry officials, with aim to help participants understand distance education as a mode of provision, and how it departs from conventional face-to-face. By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to describe the role of distance education in addressing the educational needs of various groups of people in the Pacific and be able to develop and plan for effective distance education policies.
