Victoria University partners with AVENU Learning to deliver online courses in India
Victoria University (VU) is thrilled to announce a new partnership with AVENU Learning, offering innovative online courses to students in India.
Supported through a grant from the Victorian Government’s International Education Resilience Fund, the VU Advantage programs to be offered with AVENU Learning will see the development of a suite of affordable, vocationally oriented online award and non-award courses focused on information technology and business. AVENU Learning will be VU’s delivery partner for these courses in India.
This is VU’s first venture into fully-online education delivery in an offshore market – an innovative time as we continue to do dual differently, and be the pioneer in this space in the Australian university sector.
“This is a truly exciting partnership that showcases the very best VU has to offer students based in India. Like AVENU Learning, we are committed to providing world-class education and flexible course delivery, driven by our revolutionary approach to teaching and learning. We are thrilled with the opportunity to share the many ways students in India can achieve a meaningful and successful career through VU courses,” said Vice-Chancellor Adam Shoemaker.
Ms Jade Roth, CEO, AVENU Learning said partnering with VU signalled a new chapter for the leading global provider of educational services. “AVENU is honoured to launch a strategic partnership with VU and further expand opportunities for learners in India to access high quality higher education. VU’s focus on the link between excellence in education and career readiness, demonstrated by its ranking as the top school for employability skills in Australia, is in full alignment with the needs and desires of learners in India. We look forward to supporting the first cohort of VU learners later this year,” said Ms Roth.
The first intake for higher education diplomas in Business and IT will be in July 2023. Upon successful completion of the diploma units, students have the option to continue their studies with VU by moving onto the second year of the corresponding bachelor course.
