Using technology to diversify and improve access to education is the very premise on which EduTech was born. Long before the advent of social distancing, it had been established that the deployment of e-learning solutions is the only way to adequately cater to https://twitter.com/MobilePunch/status/1272821215250399233
Nigeria’s ever-growing student population.

Since partnering with Obafemi Awolowo University in 2014 to launch three undergraduate Distance Learning programs and launching Nigeria's first online MBA program in partnership with Ahmadu Bello University in 2016
we've seen 20,000+ enrollments and 5,000+ graduates, many of these with First Class Honours.

As is common with all new implementations, there will be teething problems ranging from tutor training to content development and even the elephant in the room, adequate infrastructure.
It is said that when there is a will, there is a way. If we continue to shy away from taking the right steps because of potential challenges, there will be no development.
For there to be real development within Nigerian education, there needs to be cross-sector collaboration in order to tackle challenges that are within the purview of the different stakeholders. Policymakers, Institution administrators, Associations, Service providers
and Innovators all have very important roles to play in scaling up the adoption of virtual learning in Nigeria.
In our experience, we’ve seen many challenges facilitating open & distance learning with our University partners, but we have and will continue to find solutions to these challenges. All it takes is commitment.
E-learning can be sustained in Nigeria. Our 5,000+ graduates are proof of that.
