  Welcome to the course
  
  This collection of resources is drawn from the two year professional development programme that Academic Staff did alongside ICT, Library and other support staff. It focuses on the activities that related to educational practice in general and open and distance education in particular.
  
  TIDE project enriched distance learning in Myanmar by building the capacity of Higher Education staff and students, enhancing programmes of study, and strengthening systems that support Higher Educational Institutions (HEI) in Myanmar. TIDE was part of the UK-Aid-funded Strategic Partnerships for Higher Education Innovation and Reform (SPHEIR) programme(www.spheir.org.uk). SPHEIR is managed on behalf of FCDO by a consortium led by the British Council that includes PwC and Universities UK International. The TIDE project closed in May 2021.

Please be aware that you cannot delete your reviews after posting, so we urge you not to post unless you are certain it is safe to do so.
