Is Pursuing A Degree Online Really For You? Who Should And Who Should Not?
Stanford University's Center for Professional Development has recently completed a survey of those that have been successful in completing online degree programs globally.

Commercialisation of Higher Education in South Africa
South African education policies place priority on addressing historical education imbalances, but should also be sensitive to the demands of an ever-increasing global knowledge-driven environment. The educational system cannot be dominated by the needs of the domestic educational system of South Africa ignoring the trends exerted by the global world (OEDC Annual Report, 2004:44). Higher education in South Africa should realize that they operate and function in a knowledge-driven global environment in which both domestic and foreign students demand access to the best quality education at the best reputable institutions of higher education in the world.

Government Research Procurement Fails to Bring Efficient Bidders
Those who will be doing the work at the Corporate Level are assigned a project manager specialist, generally not from the field but a team leader who sets timelines. Then the bureaucracy starts.

Two years gone by and the engineers move on, perhaps they have a working prototype; perhaps not.

Caribbean Single Market and Economy - Who Says UWI isn't Doing Enough?
CARICOM member states are now considering the establishment of a single market economy. This will mean the general removal of all legal and administrative restrictions to trade. Increased competition among these states is therefore inevitable. The ability of member states to survive the effects of trade liberalisation will among other things depend on the capacity of its human resources and its learning institutions. The role that UWI is playing in enabling the people and countries of the region to make the transition will therefore come under great scrutiny. Many, including graduates of the University, believe that "UWI simply isn't doing enough!"
