It is the UK's largest university, with over 200,000 students and customers in 1997/98. The OU represents 21% of all part-time higher education students in the UK.  The University is ranked amongst the top UK universities for the quality of its teaching. Of the 14 subjects assessed up to the end of 1998, the majority have been judged "Excellent".  Courses are available throughout Europe and, by means of partnership agreements with other institutions, in many other parts of the world. Over 24,000 learners are studying OU courses outside the UK.  Undergraduate level courses do not require any entry qualifications. Over one-third of people starting these courses have qualifications below conventional university entry requirements. Despite this, around 70% of OU students successfully complete their courses each year. Nearly all OU students are part-time and about 70% of undergraduate students remain in full-time employment throughout their studies.  More than 40,000 students study interactively on-line with the OU, at home and in the workplace.  At the OU, you get as much support as you personally need. From the start, they put you in touch with your nearest OU centre (13 local offices around the UK) and you’ll be allocated a personal tutor — you can talk over the phone, face to face, via E-mail or computer conference— who is a specialist in the subject you’re taking. As the course progresses, you can also meet and exchange ideas with other students. From then on, regular guidance and assessment by your tutor will keep your studies on track, and help you progress with confidence. 168 single nine-month courses, 30 two-year diplomas and over 20 degrees at undergraduate level — everything from short courses to nine-month single topic courses to postgraduate and research degrees.  You can study within a specified range of courses if you want a qualification in a named subject area - including IT and Computing, Psychology, Humanities, Business Studies, Social Sciences and Natural Sciences. Alternatively, you can choose the best mix of courses to suit your career plans or personal interests, and obtain a BA or BSc that is not in a particular subject.  An increasing number of professional bodies also count OU qualifications towards achievement of their own professional awards — including the Institute of Electrical Engineers (IEE), the British Psychological Society, the Institute of Mechanical Engineers and the English Nursing Board.     Brainbenchoffers you FREE online skills certification exams in 8 categories: IT, Health Care, Finance, Language, Computer Software, Industry Knowledge, Management, Business Skills By the end of 2001, Brainbench will offer over 400 exams The Training Camp is the world leader in accelerated information technology training and certification testing services for information technology (IT) professionals, corporations and government organizations.
