We are about taking off because all necessary requirement have been put in place in terms of technology and human resources to pilot the programme.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIn 2019, COVID-19 was an eye opener. Students couldn\u2019t come to classes but with ODFeL, even if school is not open to business due to one reason or the other, we are not close to learning. This will give us a kind of uninterrupted academic activities.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cNBTE accredited all our programmes for ODFeL but we are starting with Accountancy, Business Administration, Computer Science, Mass Communication, Public Administration, and Local Government Studies. It will later expand to other programmes as time goes on. By the time we run these six for a session, other programmes will join by following session.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThere is no need for students coming to class. They will only come to class when it\u2019s time for examination. In line with the policy of ODL as approved by NBTE, all lectures will be online except there is need for physical participation which will not take more than a week.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThough all admission to tertiary education is through JAMB, The Poly Ibadan ODFeL students are going to write exams. Unlike other regular students, they will also pass through JAMB for registration.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also said application for the programme is through <a href=\"http:\/\/odfel.polyibadan.edu.ng\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/odfel.polyibadan.edu.ng<\/a>, adding that application fee for National Diploma (ND) is N2,000 while N5,000 is for Higher National Diploma (HND).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: The Nation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#EduSAVINGS#EduLOANS#EduSURE#INTERNSHIP#SCHOLARSHIP#EduHEALTHMAINTAINANCE#ENTERPRENUERSHIP#PressPayNg#TERTIARY#EDUCATION#TUITION#FEES#UNIVERSITY#POLYTECHNIC#MONOTECHNIC#FELLOWSHIP#COLLEGEOFEDUCATION#HOLIDAYJOBS#SOFTSKILLSTRAINING<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The management of The Polytechnic, Ibadan on Monday 26 September said the institution has begun Open Distance and Flexible e-Learning<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5053,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5052","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
