EELU and AUC e-training Project
EELU and AUC have signed a cooperation agreement to offer joint training programs in various fields through the continuing learning center at the Egyptian E-Learning University and The school of Continuing Education at the American University in Cairo. The training programs are to be offered at EELU learning centers in Cairo, Tanta and Assuit. Our goal is to provide access to training opportunities that would not otherwise be available to students in their current locations. Through these online programs, students will be able to learn anytime and anywhere, and will be given chances to enhance their current careers or pursue other employment opportunities. SCE is committed to the success of these programs and to making a positive contribution to continuing education opportunities in Egypt and Middle East. Within the context of their own missions, both SCE and CLC extend their resources to contribute to the quality improvement of life-long learning by providing blended learning programs using multimedia interactive educational materials which are dynamic in content and relevant to all learners contexts. We strive to provide learning experiences that enable learners to apply what they learn in their personal and professional lives. Current Programs
