CyberLearning, the foremost non-profit digital divide leader and a leading provider of eLearning, today announced an agreement with the 124-year old Bacone College to enable users of CyberLearning online training courses to receive college credits.

The arrangement provides Bacone College credits for entire IT (Information Technology) certification track courses offered by CyberLearning, like A+, MOS, MCP, MCSE, MCSA, CCNA, CCDA etc. Once a student completes the course, passes the Microsoft/Cisco/CompTia/ Oracle exam and sends his/her exam scores and the applicable fee to the College, he/she will receive the appropriate college credits. These credits can be transferred to any college or university, since Bacone College is a fully accredited institution.

Bacone college credits are available for students and working adults everywhere who sign up for access to the CyberLearning courses through our India System. Disadvantaged students and adults receive a 75% scholarship to access CyberLearning's 1,200 plus high-quality online courses. CyberLearning has been offering training since 1998.

"After achieving our first objective of making high-quality online IT training affordable to the masses, especially the disadvantaged, we set out to achieve our second objective, namely, providing affordable high-quality college education to the masses," stated Dr. Appu Kuttan, President & CEO of CyberLearning. "By setting up a CyberLearning School of IT at Bacone College, we are starting an innovative program for providing industry-recognized college credits and degrees to students and working adults. We believe Web-based training is a very practical way to implement large-scale training and testing programs. Today's fast-paced business world and knowledge-driven economy demand the kinds of skills that people can develop through our eLearning courses."

"Bacone College has provided affordable college education to mainly disadvantaged students, especially American Indians since its inception in 1880." said Dr Robert Duncan, President of Bacone College-Muscogee, Oklahoma. "Students can take as many courses as they wish - on their own time, at their own pace and in their own space. Once a student meets our graduation requirements, he/she can receive a college degree. Our partnership with CyberLearning has much to offer: high-quality online courses from CyberLearning as well as affordable college credits from Bacone College. CyberLearning is an excellent addition to our institution's existing information technology initiatives. We enthusiastically support this program, which extends lifelong affordable educational opportunities to people everywhere."
