The panel assessed the Center’s resources, including skilled teachers, learning materials, and technological support.

Findings and Recommendations

The NUC panel found that the Distance Learning Center had all the necessary resources to support these new programmes. The panel was impressed with the setup and recommended the approval based on their findings. The NUC expects the Center to follow these recommendations to ensure high-quality education for students.
