Market Wire, 20050229

Online-Learning.com (OLL)--a leader in the development and delivery of online courses--is now affiliated with Ohio University, offering course certification in both Canada and the U.S.

Ohio University, cited for its academic excellence by publications such as Princeton Review's "Best Colleges," has been ranked 45th among public national universities by U.S. News & World Report in its annual "America's Best Colleges" edition. The university has an enrollment of some 27,000 students and 900 full-time faculty and offers undergraduate, masters and doctorate degrees in a wide range of subject areas, including arts and sciences, business, communications, osteopathic medicine, and engineering and technology.

The affiliation is with Ohio University's Office of Community and Professional Programs, which will certify OLL's non-credit professional development courses upon successful completion. Each course is assigned Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and participants must attain 75% or better on marked assignments. These Certificate Programs provide students with professional status relative to the course subject matter taken, attest to the student's competency in the subject matter and helps students qualify for professional relicensing and recertification.

OLL offers online courses for technical writers, information designers and web authoring professionals in the fields of graphic design, technical writing, single-source documentation, screen layout, web client-server scripting, human-computer interaction design and web-based training design. Courses cost between $249 and $499 U.S., take four to 12 weeks to complete and are taught by industry experts using a proven mentored-learning model that has helped OLL achieve student completion rates of over 80%. In Canada, courses are certified through Carleton University's Sprott School of Business Professional Development Division. Students can now choose to receive a Certificate of Completion from either of these two great schools.

OLL, with over 25 years of experience in distance education, has been delivering courses online since 1995. It offers high-quality content using an instructor-mentoring approach that combines traditional classroom techniques with the communications convenience of the Internet.
