Digital Divide
E-Tuition System
Background/Overview of the Initiative
The E-Tuition System is an online learning management system provided by the Nuclear Center of Excellence (CoNE) for offering training programs in nuclear technology and related technologies. There are six training sectors offered:
- Radiation Safety and Health
- Medical Radiation
- Non-Destructive Testing
- Environmental Safety and Health
- Nuclear Science and Engineering
- Technology Management
The system is designed to support learning and teaching through digital mediums. It also helps manage courses, deliver learning materials, assess trainees, and facilitate interaction between instructors and trainees, all conducted online.
The system's development began in 2010 through outsourcing and was implemented using the Moodle application. The first course offered through the E-Tuition system was launched in 2011, focusing on medical radiation with the ‘Good Handling Practice in Medical X-Ray’ training program. This program was introduced for officers and medical practitioners, considering their busy schedules and limitations in attending physical training. From this starting point, the system was expanded, and more training programs were added over time.
The target participants for this system include adult learners and professionals from private companies, government departments/agencies, and the general public. The system is categorized as Government-to-Business (G2B) and Government-to-Government (G2G). Below are the E-Tuition System Modules:
- Learning Modules: Courses are divided into multiple modules or topics, allowing learners to study independently.
