Q) How has Higher Education changed your career, personal life or you as a person?

Q) What do you believe are the main benefits of distance learning?

The person involved gets the benefit of being employed at the same time being educated meaning you dont have to quit your job; one gets to practise whatever one learns on the job and lastly an increase in remuneration.

Q) Anything you'd like to add?

A)  I would also a big thank you to the initiators of distance learning for giving some of us (me in particular) the opportunity of being educated without leaving your country of origin. Learning would make me interact with different of people of diverse culture, I appreciate the fact that am preparing for future opportunities. I will also like to add that am beginning to enjoy these good facilities and that the RDI team should keep up the good work wishing RDI fruitful years ahead.
