Just as the physical and social development of the average child is beset with many problems, so the development of education in any given society is hampered by a variety of problems, some of which are associated with the responsibility for and control of the society's education, the diversification of the educational system, the need to relate the schools' curricula to national man-power needs, and the society's economy. All these problems are retarding the pace of educational development in Nigeria today.
This being the background, e-learning is most probable way for us to overcome these problems and build learning capacity across Nigeria and offer self-paced, self-directed, accommodative, learner centric, global, 24/7, on-demand, convenient, low-cost, collaborative and instructor-led courses.
Taking the education statistics in Nigeria into consideration, in conjunction with extensive research from an Independent company, it is clear that Nigeria is ready for e-Learning coupled with Blended Learning. As a company, BICS commits to providing resources, technical, infrastructure and intellectual support.
Only through the application of e-learning can Nigeria reach the countless thousands of citizens who, for a variety of reasons, cannot avail themselves of traditional learning methods. Without expanding the scope of training options, the citizens of Nigeria; especially the youth of the country, will not be able to ready themselves and their country to be a viable participant in the expanding global economy. |
