NOUN Vice-Chancellor Leads Delegation to International RIDE Conference in London

 The Vice-Chancellor of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), Professor Uduma Oji Uduma, is currently leading a high-level delegation from the University’s Faculty of Education at the prestigious RIDE Conference hosted by the University of London.

The conference, themed “Reflecting, Innovating, Developing and Envisioning the Future,” serves as a global platform for experts to discuss the evolving landscape of distance and digital education.

Captured in the official photographs, Professor Uduma (middle) is seen alongside prominent academic staff and educational partners, including:
