Online education is key for developing nations - Jay B. Hilotin, Gulf News

"Just-in-time learning" through online education is a key enabler for the Middle East and other developing nations to raise their competitiveness in knowledge-driven global relations. This was stressed by two visiting management gurus in Dubai taking part in a week-long congress on Total Quality Management organised by the E-TQM College, an online school envisioned as the nucleus for higher education in the Arab world. "In 2002, online learning has grown by 180 per cent while conventional classroom-oriented education has grown by less than one per cent," Dr H. James Harrington, CEO of Harrington Institute and a leading technology trendsetter, told Gulf News.
