The University of Ibadan (UI) has partnership with Edurex Academy to proffer necessary solutions to academic rigour through online courses and certifications.
Vice Chancellor (VC) of the institution, Prof. Kayode Adebowale, said the two institutions would be committed to democratising learning in Nigeria and beyond, noting that the partnership would also bring boundless possibilities for learners seeking continuous development, professional skills and certifications.
Adebowale, who spoke during the launching of strategic partnership between UI and Edurex Academy, an EdTech firm, yesterday, said UI had always been at the forefront of educational excellence, noting that partnership with Edurex is a testament to dedication of the institution to staying at the cutting edge of the rapidly evolving educational landscape.
In his remarks, Director of UI Distance Learning Centre (DLC), Prof Emmanuel Omobowale, commended Edurex for the partnership, saying: “Together we are laying a foundation for future where education knows no boundaries, and learners from every corner of the globe have access to knowledge and skills needed for future.”
Meanwhile, Kayode Olaniyan, while speaking on behalf of the founder of Edurex Academy, Adedotun Fasiku, said the partnership would give opportunity to individuals to have access to knowledge and skills needed to thrive in an ever-changing global landscape.
He said the academy had always been driven by a mission to empower learners, saying they believe in the potential of every individual to learn, grow and contribute meaningfully to the society.
He, therefore, urged learners to embrace the partnership, assuring that the Academy and UI would support and guide them on every step to the way upward. He, however, thanked UI for its visionary leadership and commitment to excellence.
