Opportunities In Education's Global Expansion

In recent years, "study abroad" has taken on a whole new meaning — on brand new campuses. Many universities have established satellite campuses in host countries across the globe. These campuses combine distance learning with local campus and classroom experiences, creating a blended learning environment. However, these new outposts exacerbate the complexity of traditionally decentralized and uncoordinated (and increasingly costly) university information and communications technology (ICT); universities already face public cost concerns and increased competition. To better enable global cross-campus collaboration and to facilitate strategy definition and change management in education ICT, technology vendor strategists must leverage their own knowledge of global enterprise deployment and experience in corporate learning.
