The Namibia University of Science and Technology’s Centre for Open and Lifelong Learning is in charge of designing and delivering supported open and remote learning (NUST). As a remote education center, we are an extension of NUST, concentrating on learning through various methods for a wide range of academic programs. Our students complete their studies via distance education, both in print and online, which provides a dynamic learning environment that is flexible and engaging.

VISION:

Through pedagogic innovation, the Centre for Open and Life-long Learning seeks to be internationally recognised and distinguished for the design and delivery of supported open and distance learning.

MISSION:

The Centre is committed to:

• access to high-quality university education;
• foster collaboration across organisational boundaries and the intelligent application of technology to provide high levels of service which are valued by students;
• providing the most appropriate and effective learning and teaching media and support services;
• flexibly provide student-centred learning experiences;
• programmes that meet individual lifelong learning needs; and
• continually enhancing the quality of course materials and support services.
